I'm not really aware of a career such as a medication technician, well, maybe not in our place. A pharmacy technician career is a good fit for those interested in detail-oriented tasks, memory games, helping others, and decoding handwriting. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 334,400 pharmacy technicians in 2010 and 108,300 new positions will be added by 2020. Pharmacy technicians are employed in organizations, such as Pharmacies, Retail (grocery and drug store) pharmacies and Hospitals. Healthcare employers look for people to assist licensed pharmacists dispense prescription medication. People skills are a valued asset, since assisting customers with nonprescription questions and dealing with insurance claims are often a part of the job. Since the population continues to be active longer, it is no surprise this career is anticipated to grow faster than average.
