Live CE
 

Sure I would be willing to attend 5 hours of live ce as long as the Board of Pharmacy reimbursed me for ALL my expenses. Pharmacists are not like Physicians who write these expenses off underneath their corporate umbrella. Don't you think 15 hours of ce, no matter how attained is suffcient concidering all the other services that the pharmacists of today are being required to perform. I realize the board exists to protect the public, but it certainly should serve as a advocate for the pharmacist in order for him to perform at the high expections expected of him, and cost aside, asking a pharmacist to spend a undetermined amount of time to obtain 5 hours of live ce is unreasonable. Why do you not stop cowtailing to the CVS's of the world and act in a manner to aide the pharmacist on a daily basis to do his job.
