“I am a staff pharmacist with Greenville Hospital System. I dispense information about medications, calculate dosages, input physicians’ orders, and make sure that medications are dispensed correctly and in a timely manner.

“What attracted me was the reputation of Greenville Hospital System, which is outstanding. The culture at Greenville Hospital is based on excellent care for all patients. I find working here to be exciting and very educational. I also like the hours, the competitive pay, and the work environment. But I believe the big difference is our strong involvement in the community of which GHS has been a part for such a long time. We sponsor many work shops and seminars that are very helpful.

“Greenville Hospital system is very passionate about becoming the best hospital system in the country. I can tell by its community involvement, its compassion for patients and its growing academic recognition. GHS is giving the best care possible in the most cost-effective manner. We demonstrate this every day by making sure patients get the correct medications, giving nurses and doctors the most up-to-date information about medications, calculating proper dosages for certain medications, and providing clinical support.

“Our core values shape how I approach my job. I have embraced new pharmacy bar-code technology, which decreases medical errors, constant clinical training, which increases my knowledge, and I have a willingness to change with the rapidly changing demands of the pharmacy department. On any given day I can make the difference in the life of a patient at GHS by providing excellent care.
