Hello,
I am working as a pharmacy assistant at a LTC, retirement and group home pharmacies. Does this fall under the LTC healthcare sector and if so can I apply PR with relevant work experience in the same? My job duties match both as technician and assistant and I am not sure under which NOC code does it falls any help regarding the same would be highly appreciated.

Following are my responsibilities:
Supporting our Long Term Care business the Pharmacy Assistant will be required to input prescriptions using pharmacy software. This will include updating patient profile information, generating, maintenance and inputting of long term care data.

Your Day To Day

  • Performing all technical aspects of dispensing of prescriptions, including receiving the order/refill, procuring complete and current information, computer entry, preparation and labelling in an efficient, accurate and timely fashion. This may include compounding or reconstituting if delegated by the pharmacist
  • Identifying and referring any clinical questions to the pharmacists and management questions to the pharmacist manager or pharmacist on duty
  • Clerical duties including completing all records, documentation and patient or third part billings/charges, preparing receipts, invoices, letters, memos and general filing
  • Maintaining current and accurate patient profile information
  • Ensure organization of work area and stock shelves
  • Performing other duties as assigned

Thanks.

If you meet EE-CEC eligibilty you can apply with NOC for pharmacy assistant. Your job responsibilities must match the NOC.

my responsibilities match with that of a technician and assistant but I don't hold specific certificates in regards to it. I have done pharmacy from my home country.
