Just like pharmacists who work in hospitals and commercial pharmacies, work from home pharmacists handle prescriptions and may answer questions about drug interactions, but they are typically consultants for hospitals and clinics or handle prescriptions for mail order drug companies, short- and long-term care facilities, and other similar businesses. They usually do not have much direct interaction with patients. Pharmacists who work from home monitor the process of filling prescriptions for their company; they oversee the accurate entry of prescribed medications into the system and ensure the orders are filled efficiently. Work from home pharmacists may need to visit the office occasionally, but they do the majority of their administrative work remotely.
