Pharmacy Education : Perspective Of Career Market

April 28th, was a day for us, pharmacy student to remember, it was a great event managed and created by US students, and mostly managed by first PharmD's student to be graduated from our faculty this semester.. Student wrok, Pharmaceutic companies, and over 300 student attended too many speakers and lectures all to help us chose and know what Market needs and a great well spoken word from Minister Dr.Taher Sharkhsher, if you attended it you gained so much, and its too bad you missed it.

Scientific day

Two speakers had my attention mostly, Dr. Amjad Aryan CEO pharmacy one, and Dr.Khalid AwadatADATCO manager.
for Dr. Amjad he spoke about pharmacy one and its success here in Jordan and a view to open a chain in USA, the thing that attached us more as students is the talk out side the lecture room, during the break he started to tell us about our work, career, and how we can as Youth change it, insisting to tell us we are the Future to come. He also liked an idea by one of our PharmD's about their work as PharmD in the major pharmacy and to increase the counselling they need, specially for co-morbid diseases.

Pharmacy One

Dr. Khalid Awadat was a man in deed i was glad to hear him talking, he spoke about Pharmacy in History and the Road to Success in pharmaceutic business, he had pointed somethings only Professionals know and the aim we need in life, he had pointed as well that the work to gain money should never be the case but the work to be the manager to the company you work for is our aim to be, he kept saying and it gave me a push and a motivation to what to do in the work i might be seeking!


To our work as students, we had 14 tables, 6 were counselling ones, herbal supplementation, model pharmacy, and many others. we also had a posters section, to display good and bad pharmacy practice, Immunology, and case controlled study, despite the rain that got us all wet and blessed our work we had really succeeded.

JPSA had also a great presence

JPSA had also a great presence along the companies that came, JPSA was responsible for PallaiativeCare Clinic. as for companies it was a great way to see their products and job applications were filled by most of us. The most booth that got my attention was PharmaQuestJo "drug evaluation and research" they showed us the clinical trails that goes here in Jordan and bio-equivalence studies, did you know you can train there??


PharmaQuestJo

Mostly again i have to thank all the people who had made it successful, and a blessed day to pass,Musa Abaddi, Khalid Bawab and mostly Hussain Al-Qaisi.

Majd Olimat: When can the pharmacist be a supermarket seller!

Majd Olimat: When can the pharmacist be a supermarket seller!: "Ever been in a pharmacy where you entered only to buy gum, makeup, cotton pads…. Many did and honestly no pharmacy is empty of these stuff..."

When can the pharmacist be a supermarket seller!



Ever been in a pharmacy where you entered only to buy gum, makeup, cotton pads…. Many did and honestly no pharmacy is empty of these stuff… Who do you trust more, your mum when telling you about medication or the person in lab coat “if he/she was” ?? for me I think Grany may know about medications more than a pharmacist who smells as a smoker and try to convince me with Chapmix, Necotril, or even Nikotin gum..

Here raises the Question, WHY?? Each person in pharmacy or current collages come from decentfamilies, all are graduated from good school, and believe me no one reach is 5th year in JU and considered a weak pharmacist. Yet you come to cross some people and you wonder how they are pharmacist! Sorry ever came across a graduate student from Petra or Amman Ahlieh! No comparison..


Yet stupid mistakes are done, is this common scenario:
Patient: I need baby aspirin® and something for my tooth its killing me too much.
Pharmacist: sure, Dolora®z is the fastest one, see it has a Rabbit on it.
Patient:  sure it is safe I don’t need any pain I have ulcer already.
Pharmacist: yes this is Ranidin® , and here is 10% discount for coming.

I am not trying to provide an OTC lecture, but WHAT ARE YOU DOING, Aspirin and Ibobrofin, sorry but stupidity is what you have. Here comes the most important thing that makes you a Health Care Provider not someone looking to sell all the amount of this medication coz it has high bonus or near expiry date! Have anyone actually been to a pharmacy that didn’t have a whole shelf of Near Expiry? I don’t think so.

Many and I believe want to graduate and work for a foreign company, end up with 800JD’s per month then settle down, many of those Ph seekers want to be tortures or be named Dr.’s and those whose husband doesn’t approve anything want to work in a pharmacy, and the knowledge stops, no more being updated no more patient counseling nor having a guidelines to fallow, antibiotics will stop working in less than a century and the black ages will hunt again, the good thing many people will die and more space will be held for others.

Sorry to ask but, to be online updated or subscribe for Pharmacy Times® isn’t bad, it will raise you for sure and won’t kill you, no need for you to stop in a lecture and say I haven’t entered a pharmacy since over a decade, or to teach OTC when you never worked in a pharmacy in the country you are teaching it, nor give Ethics when you are not a practice pharmacist. Yes sorry to say I have better knowledge to work in a pharmacy and what’s in the market more than half of Dr.’s who never worked and probably faked their 1440 hours to be a practice pharmacist.


You are a seller when you don’t get updated, when you never work up your career, when you are INEFFECTIVE, make a meaning of your life, or at least don’t kill people by stupid mistakes, be a health care provider and remember the promise you made…

Lived it till i Believed it

I know I may have something wrong with my brain, something that makes me a psycho or make that word fits me! It’s not easy to happen or most likely to be happening, but I think it’s due to these bad genes I got, but what can I say, I am a serenity weak person, never safe never home feeling and never satisfied, as if having everything you ever get to wish isn’t enough, and still I don’t get to want materials, since I get them all, nor do I seek peace, coz I run to any place where disscomfortment and  ache lye and make the sun that worms me.

Japanese Geisha

I just wonder what have my ancient soul make so I get to live in this century, does the Japanese Geisha I once was hurt someone, or broke a house where the wife wished to be me, the night wife.  Or was I a duke walker through all the nights, making my money by trying to be a better moaner than his wife. After all one soul of mine didn’t seem to have lived satisfyingly other than this life I am passing it seems there comes my Ancient Greek soul, the one that suffered from wisdom and love, maybe due to that life my other partners seemed to live in a semi Nobel life, as not for my life, this life, the one that I seem to be hit on the head and walking like a maniac on these streets, hoping I could have my fully living life without the PMS and the stupid womanish pain!

My lust seemed to have got satisfaction

My lust seemed to have got satisfaction from the old days, where now I no longer think of anything but the old lives I once lived, and hoping my reasonable me get to retain my cover well, it’s the curse of rich families I guess, for if I looked insane nth but the psycho hospital to be locked up in that, nor does living it to the fully as the true me would actually work.

And then I come to meet my street wondering schizophrenic friend and we get to share the most amazing talk together, running and laughing knowing no one would ever get the reason of us being together nor do we, but somehow of him being off pills and me being naturally bipolar I get to somehow see the other part that no one can see, I got to look for what is behind nature and what is behind us living here, maybe I am just a stupid young girl with the aim of publishing my diaries to the world and be one of those silly writers who get attention due to the way they lived!


But how did I live?  Rich and satisfied in all needs, being in top if a class always, moving to a gifted student school where I got to see how normal I was, and developing my darker side, or actually make it awake, does the fact that I care much more for passion and fancy restaurants and all these type of dating to see who is the Future Mr. Sufferer Along would be, while my actual heart doesn’t even beat, and it shows and echo sound that you get to hear to that person I once meet, that person that remained me I forgot about the life span I may have lived in France, the life where I wondered to meet my painter, but I didn’t seem to find him, did I actually live it? Or it’s just a missing one I am trying to fulfill by living in this century, where the art is how much you can show from a body in a fashion wear! No one seems to get the oil, the old piece of cloth that you draw on it, where I get to be pictured in someone’s mind and for each cell of my body focused on that painting.

Would the gods be mad at me now? Will I get to the place named hell? Does it get to be lived if I haven’t done any of the sins that seem to be changing from life span to another, from 10years to other 10years the rules change, the people change ideas, and the idea of heaven remains the same where the idea of hell gets to be changing, maybe it is due to the idea of it not being there, and we get to go back to dust, or as for me, you get to live again in each century in each life span till you have lived them all. No more of wondering where we get to wait, they just have discovered a new galaxy resembling ours, maybe there where the souls stops to wait, and fallow their path to the new destiny, the one they set, the one standing on that Olympus ruled by a bunch of gods, looking at the missed up lives these hungry souls would do.

P.S: it’s not you, it’s just too complicated for me…

Once I was just like a small kid wondering here and there,
Running after birds, trying to eat the snow,
Thinking cotton candy had came from the clouds,
But then as the time passed, things changed,
No little princess of the world anymore,
Not a mum’s Barbie in each moment of the day,
Somehow things started to vanish,
Till I decided to be a rock or a wind,
Wanted to be that solid rock that cannot be moved easily,
Where each person gets to set and lye by, along their path,
For me, I never wanted them to leave, but the path goes on,
And countries change and future came along for them,
Where these passengers had a new chapter to start somewhere away from me,
Then I said wind is good to be like,
Always moving and change with seasons,
But somehow I got so many passengers where I couldn’t meet any,
Couldn’t build that strong relation I build when I was a solid rock,
But I became the silent breeze you wish to in a summer night,
Nice and light, comes once or twice against your face,
So for now, I got to pass rocks and stones and gathered along to build a solid ground,
A ground that can come to broken anytime out of my fear,
It’s not the matter of insecurity, nor the matter of weakness,
But rather, you my friend travelling away from where I can reach you,
No more 5 min raid to get to your home, no more hugs or long phone calls,
Somehow 2 years away from me is just too long,
For now I am standing in top a huge mountain,
A long one, I spent a long time climbing it,
Where I am afraid to fall down and not to be there anymore,
The more I wish to be closer to you the further I push you away from me…

They Say Justice Exist


Setting in the most boring lecture today, which a Dr gives it, he started to talk about exo- and endogenous estrogen and I sat to wonder why 99% of people feel HAPPY/ SHY when talking about Menopause and they just ignore or actually ignorant about ANDROPAUSE, male menopause if up to say so, again men want to be the untouchable thing the holly thing again stupidly we as women give this idea to our male kids and female ones to make them accept it.
 I don’t know if my family is any different but being the only spoiled one at home I get to face this stupid thinking by my brothers after a nice hang out with their friends but parents get to make them understand, but again community wins and makes the thinking different yet to make sure womendon’t get to fight or know their rights عصام و لطفية are their ideal about how to treat one another some says سند رجال ولا خيال



Then again you think it’s the end, and you will rise up this amazing child who you will teach not to do so, well it’s one of the best lies you can ever say…

As for males, plenty will read it and laugh, but they call themselves in middle age crises and women need to sympathy with them, not enough with the kids responsibility, nor the extra spoil they say they don’t get, and the thing that made them a male makes them alright to hold the flag and CHEAT, although the actual meaning of the word seems inapplicable in our community but now along with the wrong idea about globalization it is less than easy, try to work on the pharmacy in holidays and I bet you, you won’t be selling anything beside durex, lubricants and Viagra,, its holidays people give them a break!


Yes women don’t understand men’s need, nor men get women, and the one who wrote “Men From Mars Women from Venus” thought he had the answer to the amazing IT, which is never defined, nor can it be…

May I ask a serious Question, Ladies, why when you reach 27 years you start to hide your age, and refuse to answer it! I might be young to get it but for now I barely get anything, but working with community and selling a service, rather than medication or working on a supermarket as some love to say, gave me a good deal of working with people, and yet I don’t get it. You get to be the best in your work and gain all success but being near 30 and alone scars you, and makes you give up the dream of yours and sitting home with the baby to keep the man in your pocket. I might be wrong, but adoption agencies are full of kids that may get better genes than you actually do!

Yet if you gained this man, and wished to complete the success ladder to go up to it, you knowledge stops! Never develops, and the usual “No Time To Be Updated” is your stupid excuse! Maybe in languages you think you cannot but literature never ends. For now I wish I know why I am defacing women who just love to OBEY…
