I choose my photo inventory project to be on my job location. I work at a pharmacy in the close side office where we do works compensation, hospice patients and facility patients. Also, we

dispense to medical patients.

The organization of paper work is not visual in this picture but from reference it is used the best way possible. Records as shown above are saved from precious years. This shows how business must maintain paper work from past years to be able to go back to any record for reference.

The space of the office is not very organized. This space it seems to be used only to be able to fit unless paperwork. This tells us that the people who were working here in the beginning weren't organized people at all.

However, we go to another department and the space isn't used at all. This could mean two things. First, no work is being done or less paper is needed to be used. Either way more space shows a clear room of less work to look at.

Here the room is filled with DME. This mean Dural medical equipment. This space is used and organized to what the facilities need for the old retired patients.

This is where we fill and create compound creams for our patients. The machines we use shows the growth of technology in the medical field. We now can create creams out of different medication to help with different places of pain in the human body.

We carry a vary of different brand names of mediation, over the counter and Norco for intensive treatment for pain. This organized is different from the office side but is the most important one to have in a pharmacy. This helps us fill and send out patie3nts their medication faster.

On our retail side we see a lot of different utilities we need now a days to be able to sell. Reasons being a common cold, allergies, even smokes. Our pharmacy is connected to different brands. To our owner its important for making money.

The lunch room is mandatory by state law to be clean and provided for the employees. Note to this owner the microwave should be replaced.

I would recommend my pharmacy to do drive through like CVS. This kind of service is showing how much this kind of business is expanding in the United States and the importance of more quick effort less service to patients.
