How many days per week must a Pharmacist-in-Charge (PIC) work in a West Virginia pharmacy?

2 days
3 days
4 days
5 days

The correct answer is: 3 days

In West Virginia, the regulations specify that the Pharmacist-in-Charge (PIC) is required to be present in the pharmacy for a minimum of three days per week. This requirement ensures that the PIC can adequately oversee the pharmacy's operations, maintain compliance with state and federal laws, and provide necessary guidance to the pharmacy staff. The role of the PIC is critical in ensuring that pharmacy practices adhere to safety protocols, medication management, and patient care standards. By mandating that the PIC works at least three days a week, West Virginia law promotes effective management and accountability within the pharmacy setting. Choosing a different number of days, like two, four, or five, would not align with the established regulations that aim to balance oversight with practical staffing needs within the pharmacy.
