Guest guest Posted May 31, 2001 Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 Can someone find out what they used to chelate and how much/how often. Surely with all the documentation they'd have that to share as well.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2001 Report Share Posted December 27, 2001 no thanks needed Georgina. It seemed an appropriate time to share the story. I have 2 questions for the group. As FACES leader and designated newsletter writer I have the duty of selecting children, teens or young adults who wish to be profiled in the FACES newsletter in the "meet our Members" section of the letter. As I am running out of those who have expressed a wish to be in the newsletter I am looking for new recruits...if you are interested could you please email me. Also with the new year FACES will have a new home, new ideas and new newsletter topics. We are going to have a Q & A section for parents, teens, children and young adults to send in questions that fellow members will answer in follow up newsletters. I am looking for some questions so if possible email those to me also. You can reach me at faces1999@... For those unaware of FACES, Facing Arthritis with Compassion, Encouragement and Support is a support system for kids, young adults and parents !!! We are a social, educational, and down right great group (remember, I am biased...lol). If you wish to recieve our newsletter please let me know...Thanks gang, y'all are the greatest!!!

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi Jeanetta, Thanks for the heads up. I will check out the online program. We have a continuing education Pharm Tech program at a community college but it costs $1399. How challenging is it to obtain a Pharm Tech trainee position and where is the best place to look in NY/NJ? P.S. Your tutorials online are very helpful. Thanks again, Ki wrote: There are 8 messages in this issue. Topics in this digest: 1. Re: Digest Number 1230 From: " Jeanetta Mastron CPhT BS Chemistry " 2.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Jeanetta, Virginia does not require education. As the previous poster stated, You need to either pass the PTCB exam and then register as a Pharmacy Technician in Virginia (VA does not license Pharmacy Technicians), or you can take a VA State approved Program and then sit for the VA state exam, after passing the VA state exam, you can register as a Pharmacy Technician in VA. One important distinction, is that in order to work as a Pharmacy Technician while studying to become one, you need to be in a VA State Approved training Program, like mine (www.PASS.com) (www.PassPTCB.com). If you are enrolled in a VA state approved program, you may work as a Pharmacy Technician while studying to become one for a maximum of 9 months. After the nine months, if you did not obtain certification & register in VA, you would either be demoted to a Pharmacy Clerk, or be let go. VA requires 5 CE's every year, whereas PTCB requires 20 CE's every 2 years. They can overlap! Hope that helps clear things up for VA. If anyone else has questions, please feel free to post here, email me, call me, or check out my site for more detailed info, including VA Laws pertaining to Pharmacy Technicians. Good Luck in your studies everyone! A. , BS, CPhT P.A.S.S., LLC 571-332-0212 www.PASS.com www.PassPTCB.com wrote: There are 8 messages in this issue. Topics in this digest: 1.
