Bill Summary
AN ACT Amending sections 32-1901 and 32-1901.01, Arizona Revised Statutes; amending title 32, chapter 18, article 3, Arizona Revised Statutes, by adding section 32-1965.01; relating to the ARizona state board of pharmacy.
AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law to establish a clear standard of care for pharmacists, requiring them to evaluate whether specific actions fall within the practice of pharmacy and can be delegated to supervised personnel. Pharmacists must consider if an act is prohibited by state or federal law, if it aligns with their education, training, and experience, and if it meets the accepted standard of care expected from a reasonably prudent pharmacist in a similar situation. This new provision is added to the existing definitions of unethical and unprofessional conduct, with the intent of ensuring patient safety and professional accountability within the pharmacy practice.
