Allows pharmacy technicians to practice in any pharmacy under the supervision of a pharmacist.

This bill amends the education law to allow registered pharmacy technicians to practice in any pharmacy under the direct personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist. The supervising pharmacist must remain in the immediate area, authorize, and evaluate the procedures. The pharmacy technician can assist in tasks such as compounding, preparing, labeling, or dispensing drugs, but professional judgment must be exercised by the licensed pharmacist. The pharmacy must ensure the technician has received appropriate training. The act takes effect immediately.
