This bill amends the Pharmacy Practice Act in Nebraska by changing the number of pharmacy interns and pharmacy technicians that a pharmacist can supervise. Specifically, it increases the maximum number of individuals a pharmacist can supervise from three to four. The bill maintains that a pharmacist intern must be supervised at all times while performing their duties, which can include various aspects of pharmacy practice, unless they are engaged in experiential training as part of their accredited pharmacy program.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision to repeal the original section of the law that is being amended. This legislative change aims to provide pharmacists with greater flexibility in managing their staff while ensuring that pharmacy interns receive the necessary supervision during their training.
