Describe the three steps made by the technician prior to finishing the prescription and presenting it to the pharmacist.

What will be an ideal response?


When the filling technician pulls a stock bottle from the shelf, he or she checks the name on the new prescription with the name on the stock bottle.

If the prescription order is a refill the original prescription is not available, so the check is made against the information on the printed receipt.

When the stock bottle is taken to the prescription counter the technician checks again, the name on the stock bottle against the name on the prescription.

After the bottle is filled, another name versus name check is made.
