Pharmacy Projects can transform your hospital. They can be the difference maker between thriving and falling. So what exactly constitutes a “best” project? What makes it different from the next best project, and what makes it unique? Let’s break it down.

Best call center projects. Sounds a little out there, but it is inarguable that pharmacist areas are the face of the medication management. The key role they play involves calling in new patients, updating existing patients on medications, and screening for new health issues. Without a representative who is on top of this daily task, the flow of communication will not be smooth. So a call center representative who has honed her skills on best practices for these key activities is a winning candidate for any project.

Best commission projects. This may seem like an easy enough idea, but pharmacist representatives need to be working in the best conditions possible. That means they need to be making good money. When I say “good money,” I don’t just mean pocketing the dough. Good projects tend to pay their bills on time, give their reps excellent benefits, and provide them with opportunities to grow in their careers.

Best web projects. There are few jobs that offer more flexibility and creativity than a pharmacist job, as projects performed at home allow the pharmacist to stay home, set their own pace, and be a part of his or her own profession. So when you’re doing a web project, make sure that quality is your number one concern.

Best clinical research projects. This can be tricky territory. But the key is to find an experienced project leader, who has established himself within the industry to offer top-notch leadership as well as other important services such as contract management and contract review. This is a project in which the pharmacist can direct clinical research and collection activities while having ultimate control over the project’s outcome.

Best contract management projects. If you’re doing contract projects in clinical settings, make sure they are done in an environment that fosters good communication. The project manager must be able to monitor all aspects of the project, including staff satisfaction, scope management, contract compliance, project track records, cost management, and project closure. It can be hard to find a good project manager, but if you can find one it will pay off in dividends by helping your pharmacist get great quality clinical laboratory and contract management project doing.

Best pharmaceutical industry leaders. What’s the pharmacist passionate about? If you can find a pharmacist who’s enthusiastic about two particular areas, then that’s a great place to start. Do you want a project that focuses on one of the industry’s cutting-edge products? Is it likely that a pharmacist’s career path will intersect with one of the industry’s emerging trends? These are some of the questions you should ask yourself to determine who’s the best person to lead your next pharmaceutical project.

Finally, get feedback. Ask around your office and other workplaces for recommendations of people you know and trust. Even pharmacist friends or coworkers can provide great input, so don’t hesitate to use them. Pharmacy project managers who receive glowing recommendations are likely to do a great job leading the project. Just remember not to rely solely on recommendations from other employees or just anyone; use a panel of experts who have both experience and wisdom to guide you.

Scope out the job. You may think that the pharmacist for a specific project is good at the job, but that doesn’t mean that the person for a different one will be equally successful. Be sure that the person leading your project has extensive experience in the field under consideration, and that the scope of the project is broad and covers all areas that need to be covered. This will ensure that the project gets completed on time and within budget, which are so vital to your business’s success.

Make sure everyone knows what the project is for. It’s always a good idea for the pharmacist to lead the effort. Make sure that all staff is aware of the goals of the project and that they understand how important it is for the project to succeed. This is especially true of any meetings that will be held within the organization. Having every staff member and supervisor in the loop will help the pharmacist to get the most out of his or her efforts.

Have fun. It can be easy to get caught up in the need to complete the work on time and within budget. However, a successful pharmacist will know that a successful job involves more than just getting things done. It will mean that the pharmacist is involved in all of the decisions, from beginning to end, so that he or she can get the most out of the project. This means that the pharmacist puts in as much effort as he can to ensure that the best pharmacy projects get done.
