Pharmacy (from the Greek φάρμακον = drug) is the health profession that links the health sciences with the chemical sciences, and it is charged with ensuring the safe use of medication. The scope of pharmacy practice includes more traditional roles such as compounding and dispensing medications.
Nursing is a profession focused on assisting individuals, families, and communities in attaining, maintaining, and recovering optimal health and functioning. Modern nursing focuses on promoting quality of life as defined by persons and families, throughout their life experiences from birth to care at the end of life.
Thus a Pharmacist trains to understand how to dispense medication while a Nurse trains how to administer this medication.
