I support mandatory breaks for retail pharmacists working 12 hour shifts, and the elimination of 14 hour shifts. I have worked 14 hour shifts in the past, and after hour eleven it became very difficult to focus. What other health care provider works 12 hours...even 8...without a lunch or bathroom break. Pharmacy should be mentally, not physically demanding. Pharmacists are well compensated, however that does not make them superhuman and able to go without meals or bathrooms breaks. The bottom line is that the patients health is at stake. It is time for change..
