The Virginia Board of Pharmacy has updated its guidance on reporting pharmacy staffing concerns and has amended several statewide protocols for pharmacists. Pharmacy permit holders must review and act on staffing reports, and pharmacists can report issues directly to the board without fear of retaliation. The revised protocols cover vaccinations, tuberculosis testing, hormonal contraceptives, naloxone, influenza, and strep throat.
