What is a locum pharmacy?

A Locum Pharmacy refers to a pharmacy that is temporarily staffed by a locum pharmacist, who fills in for regular staff during absences such as holidays, illness, or staff shortages. Locum pharmacists are licensed professionals who work on a temporary, contract, or per diem basis at various pharmacies rather than being permanently employed at one location. This arrangement allows pharmacies to maintain continuous service and compliance with regulations. Locum pharmacists may work in community pharmacies, hospitals, or other healthcare settings, adapting quickly to different environments and procedures.
