I want to get my pharmacist license in Maryland. Because of the bad weather, the board has been closed all week. I see that MAryland requires 1200 pharmacy experience hours for New York State pharmacy graduates. According to my school, I have accumulated 1134 pharmacy experience hours during my rotations, but I have been working in a hospital as a pharmacy intern for almost three years. According to the application packet, I have to submit an "Employer's affidavit" that I have completed additional hours. Is there a specific form from the Board have that I can give to my employer? Or can my Pharmacy supervisor just write up a letter and notarize it? I searched on their website, but couldn't find a form. I wasn't sure about the procedure.
