53. Pressures on Clinical Pharmacists with Alicia Lichvar, PharmD, BCPS

On episode 35 with Dr. Megan Rech we talked through why clinical pharmacists are leaving health systems early. This week we are doing a parallel topic on the pressures on clinical pharmacists. 

Alicia Lichvar, PharmD, BCPS, is a Transplant Clinical Pharmacist at UC San Diego Health. Dr. Lichvar was the lead author on a recent publication titled ‘Acts of attrition: The pressure on our clinical pharmacists’ in JACCP. We talk through the article, the pressures our clinicians are facing and ways we can improve our models to retain our pharmacists. It’s an episode you don’t want to miss!
