In early May 2023, Mount Sinai Health System embarked on a groundbreaking journey by welcoming its first-ever class of pharmacy technician students. By September, we celebrated the graduation of 6 talented individuals, all of whom secured positions as certified and registered pharmacy technicians. Building on this success, we launched our second class, this time nurturing talent from within our own employee pool. Today, we are thrilled to announce that all 12 students have graduated, achieved certification and licensing, and will join the Mount Sinai Health System as registered pharmacy technicians.
What started as a visionary idea between 2 colleagues Irina Usherenko and me has blossomed into a life-changing reality for our students. This incredible achievement was made possible by the unwavering support and leadership of our CPO Sue Mashni , and our dedicated VPs of HR and Labor Relations, Valerie Orellana, R.N., M.S. and Jeff Cohen. Together, we have turned a dream into a transformative success story, empowering our students and strengthening our community.
Special thanks to 1199 for your invaluable partnership with our internal group.
