#63: Dispensing General Practice – Dying Breed or Here to Stay? With Jane Vance

Jane Vance is a Pharmacy Technician and a Trainer for Dispex. Jane has a wealth of knowledge about dispensing practices and has come on the podcast to share with me exactly how dispensing practices work.

Jane joins me to share how dispensing practices are like running a business within a business. She talks about the nurse-led culture of her practice, the impact Covid-19 has had on her practice and dispensing and the ‘new normal’ now her practice doors are closed but the practice is open.

 

“It’s a very difficult time with Covid-19. You go from one minute being a very open practice and people are wandering in and having a chat to being totally closed. And we don’t know how long it’s going to last.” Jane Vance
