Any advice from current cvs pharmacists would be greatly appreciated. I just graduated in May and took Naplex and Law in June. My DM must have been checking the board non-stop because he knew before me that I was licensed (which by the way was just last thursday!) He called me up and told me I would be starting this week as a floater. I am extremely nervous because Ive only had a few weeks of training and it was basically only tech work. I work at a CVS in a vacation area in the summer and its the ONLY pharmacy over the bridge. I take all the voicemails, do all the transfers(minimum 20 per day), write up emergency supplies (more than transfers), and do most of the counseling. Saturday was my last day so my pharmacist let me verify all day. I verified 195 scripts from 9 to 6 and i was exhausted. I don't know how I'm going to do it BY MYSELF this week for 13 hours a day. I had so many questions as I was verifying everything was a hard stop. I was told almost everything was fine hit B then 1, enter. I don't even want to talk about the metrics bc they have all these tricks just to make the numbers look better and it takes up all this extra time and its too much for me to learn all at once. My pharmacist had me make the schedule on my schedule and it took me hours just to try and do, I'm sure she had to change it.
Basically I'm freaking out because I'm nervous about being alone especially at different cvs, i know i can call people but I'm looking for any tips in the meantime. I was hoping I could get there an hour early but it turns out that each of the stores im at the pharmacy opens the same time as the front so I'm even more worried.
