The pathSkills
This is the most patient-facing work, and usually the closest to home. You dispense medicines and advise patients in a hospital or a community/retail pharmacy. Later, you can specialise in clinical work. Pay is modest, the day-to-day impact is high, and you rarely need to move cities.
