RE:National Bank
Pharmacists staffing challenges in rural pharmacies, leading to higher pay of temporary workers. It makes sense. Rural areas have challenges with doctors as well.
This challenge will not likely change anything soon because pharmacists don't want to live in the rural unless it is too difficult to find work in the city or they are paid more than the city.
The only way to resolve then is to pay them more and charge more for services. Hopefully, the business model in rural areas can support that because otherwise pharmacies can't operate there.
