VA pharmacists are valued members of our patient care teams, using the full scope of their training on behalf of Veterans while enjoying numerous employment benefits you won’t find anywhere else.
As we celebrate National Pharmacist Day, we want to recognize the important role VA pharmacists play in the lives of Veterans, beginning with the fact that they can write and fill prescriptions based on a patient’s medication history and their own knowledge.
Under this unique authority, VA pharmacists can start new medications, stop medications, order labs and broadly do whatever needs to be done to make sure our Veterans are receiving the best care available.
Whatever path you choose, you can rest assured that we value your skills and interests and fully support your VA pharmacy career. We’re proud to invest in your future and offer avenues to further develop your unique talent.
