    Your Pharmacy

    INCREASED EFFICIENCYPreviously I would

    only allow a trained

    technician, orpharmac ist to put stockaway, otherwise thepotential for picking

    and dispensing errorswas far too high. TheCareFusion| Rowawill also dispense the

    stock that is closest

    to its expiration date,

    so we no longer have

    the constant worryabout stock rotation, orensuring medicationsare put away in acertain order.

    The Pharmacy

    PartnershipMANY pharmacies are boughtin partnership, costs are split, theworkload is shared and dierentskill sets can be combined tomaximise productivity andsuccess.

    Nevertheless there canbe pitfalls and they can bedevastating.

    A business partnership is like amarriage-you are in it for goodtimes and bad, the now and theunforeseen.

    So, no matter how condentyou are in your partner youcannot aord not to have a legalPartnership Agreement.

    It can be a simple documentthat works like a rule-book foryour pharmacy business.

    It should lay down rules forwage increases, new partners,nancial evaluation, successionplanning, buy/sell requirements,distribution of prots, partner

    duties and responsibilities.I have seen the upset caused

    when one partner becomessick, dies, divorces or simplydoesnt live up to their side of thebargain!

    Without a formal agreementthe fall-out can be catastrophicand even lead to the eventualsale of the pharmacy, let alonethe emotional cost.

    So please, if you take awayone thing from my advice,

    let it be that you draw up aformal partnership agreementBEFORE setting out on yourbusiness journey it will help toensure a long a fruitful workingrelationship.
