clear and perceptible evidence.
C. Managing pharmacist’s inventory such as medications or treatment items base on
their expiry date.
D. Executing assessment and plan for patients along with documenting all important
and relevant information.

Answer: D is the correct answer. Assessment, plan and documenting are responsibilities
found in ambulatory care instead of community pharmacy. Patient’s verification is
important in community pharmacy as the pharmacy deals directly to public. Providing
explanation and evidence which means ‘shows and tell’ is a community pharmacist’s duty.
Community pharmacy will need to manage inventory as the availability of medicine is
important to customers. Sec. 2, Obj. 4, Community Pharmacy Revealed Slides, Ambulatory
Slides.

A. The opportunity to collaborate with other healthcare professionals.

Answer: A is the correct answer. Ambulatory care practice setting often encounter people
from various healthcare backgrounds. The flexibility to relocate applies to community
pharmacy because of many convenient pharmacies available for public. Specializing in a
field of interest and providing contribution to scientific, clinical and educational knowledge
can be found in Academic Pharmacies. Obj. 4, Community Pharmacy Revealed Slides,
