Recently a hospital resident speaker, at undergrad school conventions, mentioned that he thought hospital staffing positions, eg., verify physician orders at the computer, would be eliminated by techs or automation--the only thing left being clinical positions. From my pharmacy friend's POV, clinical jobs are seen as icing on the cake, but not essential, where the staffing jobs in the hospital are the ones that are needed to run the place. I can see the number of staffers being reduced but not eliminated. The drug warning software is a joke and techs can not verify, if I am correct. If staffing goes, the whole edifice will fall. Can anyone elaborate on this?
