A group of pharmacists frustrated with overwhelming workloads didn't show up for work last week in at least a dozen Kansas City-area CVS pharmacies.
, the pharmacists weren’t demanding raises or more vacation, but more workers to help them.
Chief Pharmacy Officer Prem Shah apologized for not addressing concerns sooner in a memo to Kansas City-area staff that wasby USA Today. He promised to remain in the city until the problems are addressed and come back regularly to check on the progress. It’s unclear why workload concerns that are common industrywide led to a walkout in Kansas City. The pharmacists involved haven’t spoken publicly.
“Pharmacists who find themselves in situations where the welfare of others is in question should always pause, evaluate the situation, and take the steps necessary to ensure safe, optimal patient care,” the group said.
