In a pharmacy, you’ll be at the heart of the community, helping people understand their treatments and advising them on how to stay healthy. In dental care, you’ll work closely with dentists and patients, ensuring everyone leaves with a confident smile. 

5. Work with expert teams 

Pharmacies and dental clinics are tight-knit teams of highly skilled professionals. During your Apprenticeship, you’ll be learning from experienced pharmacists, technicians, dentists, and nurses who know their craft inside out.
