Hello all,
I dont think theres any such written document for interns guidance. you will learn everything at your own pace with time... believe me you will know it all and be confident after your internship experience that you can run a place as a pharmacist. I guess in most places it depends on the pharmacy manager (who also is you preceptor) as to what jobs or responsibilites are for an intern.
I first worked for a few months in a slow pharmacy as an intern..let me tell you - that was no experience at all cause over there I was merely a cashier and a pill counter.. cause in that kind of an environment the pharmacist has just one help....and the jobs have to be divided so all you end up doing is the cashiers job. But when I changed jobs ....it was a whole different scenario... what we did the whole day they did as many prescriptions in jjust 2hours. I had lots of responsibilites in a busy pharmacy as an intern....i did almost everything except the final check.
Sheila, dont get disheartened by some other co workers in the pharmacy. ofcourse theres going to be a difference between someone who just started and someone who's doing the exact same thing everyday since years. I had some terrible tech experience too. You will learn with time how to deal with them and its essential cause when you are a pharmacist they are your best friends (help). work hard and have patience and you will be just fine... dont stress yourself out.
