FOR TECHNICIAN DIRECTOR: Sandra Barnes, BS, RPhT, CPhT I am originally from Jacksonville, FL. I entered into pharmacy at the age of 15 in 1983 where I worked as a drug clerk at Eckerd Drugs. I have worked in many facets of pharmacy, the majority being in hospital pharmacy, where I worked most often as an IV technician. I completed my Bachelor s Degree in Biology at University of North Florida in Jacksonville in December 2000 and transitioned into teaching. I started teaching pharmacy technicians in 2004 thru 2016. I have since returned to the field to broaden my knowledge base and work as a medication reconciliation technician in the Emergency Room at St. Vincent s Hospital Riverside Jacksonville, FL. I joined the FSHP in 1993 when there wasn t a technician division. I have worked on many of the councils through the years; mainly the Educational Affairs Council and Legal and Regulatory Affairs Council. I assisted our group in getting Technician Registration legislation passed and mandated for the pharmacy technician in the state of Florida. I was the recipient of the FSHP Pharmacy Technician of the Year in 2012 2013. I have been a member of the House of Delegates for the organization for a great number of years and have worked closely with getting many resolutions passed including the resolution that allows pharmacy technicians to sit on the Board of Directors. Personal Statement: My passion is my drive to see a tier system in the pharmacy profession as there is with the profession of medicine. I plan to assist in moving the resolution that just passed for a pharmacy technician to sit on the Board of Pharmacy forward. I also plan on getting changes made to registration to include certification to mandate the ability to show our clinical competencies. I also plan to work on getting rules changed with the Board of Pharmacy to create a standardized pharmacy technician training program that could limit some of the abilities of the employer based training programs especially when not all facets of the field are taught. My passion is to move and grow the profession of a pharmacy technician as our roles are evolving along with the pharmacist s roles in our profession.
