Label

Some people claim that pharmacists are label stickers..

Well, it is true. Labels sticking is part of our job. I never understand how the label that I printed out from UniSA works until I started my placement..

So, I am going to explain a little bit about different "sections" of a label and where should they go.

Please note that different dispensing software produce different labels. The one that I am showing is the Amfac Healthlink label. I will talk about Minfos label next time.

In some pharmacies, they place the barcodes to the customer slip. They are scanned when the customers bring their items to the cashier.

Safety net stickers are given to the customer to be placed onto their safety net record card to keep track how much they have spent in a year. Once they have reached the threshold, they get their medication at a lower price.
