Pharmacy Technicians at Safeway assist the pharmacist in providing patients with safe and effective medications in order to improve their physical and mental health.

Some basic math (with a calculator) including multiplication and division, is needed. You will learn how to bill insurance plans for prescriptions.

They manage pharmacy inventory including restocking medications, checking in and labeling received orders, and removing expiring medications from the shelf.
