Job Purpose And Summary

At CVS Health, we transform health care for our customers and strive to make our company a great place to work. We help people navigate the health care system and their personal health care by improving access, lowering costs and being a trusted partner for every meaningful moment of health. In Retail locations, we bring this promise to life with heart every day and our Pharmacy Technicians play a critical role in supporting the pharmacy team to deliver on our brand promise.

As a Technician, you will support the pharmacy team in delivering operational and service excellence within your store. Technicians are often the first point of contact to assist patients and customers to deliver an exceptional experience. Technicians help ensure that pharmacy operations run smoothly, prescriptions are filled promptly, safely and accurately, and we provide caring service that exceeds patient expectations. Technicians operate as part of the pharmacy team through adherence to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), best practices, and effective communication. Throughout shifts and in all customer and colleague interactions, they demonstrate genuine care and contribute to a safe and inclusive culture where all people feel valued and empowered.

Once in role, Technicians are required to complete a rigorous company training program and satisfy all registration, licensing, and certification requirements according to their State’s Board of Pharmacy guidelines.

• Contributing to a high-performing team, embracing a growth mindset, and being receptive to feedback; actively expanding clinical and technical knowledge to better assist patients
• Remaining flexible for scheduling and business needs, contributing to a safe, inclusive, and engaging team dynamic; voluntarily traveling to stores in the market to work shifts as needed
• Understanding and complying with all relevant federal, state, and local laws, regulations, professional standards, and ethical principles; adhering to CVS policies and procedures to ensure patient safety, compliance with controlled substance dispensing and recordkeeping, and to protect patient privacy and security
• Delivering additional patient health care services where allowable by law and supported by required training and certification (e.g., immunizations, point-of-care testing, and staffing offsite clinics)

Where permissible, the Pharmacy Technician may also support immunizations, which includes:

• Completing additional licensure and training requirements, in compliance with state Board of Pharmacy regulations, to obtain Technician Immunizer status for preparing and administering vaccines
