While the highest levels of employment for pharmacists have historically been in health and personal care stores such as CVS or Walgreens, the employment of healthcare diagnosing or treating practitioners is projected to grow by 9% from now to 2031, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). As a leader amongst the top travel pharmacist agencies in the US, Barton Healthcare Staffing places travel pharmacy clinicians across a wide variety of healthcare facility types and industries.

Traveling pharmacists can expect demands for their services to expand past retail in health and personal care stores and into other healthcare settings such as hospitals and clinics as pharmacy clinicians become increasingly more integrated into healthcare teams. The future of the pharmacy profession is in optimizing patient care. Studies have shown that pharmacist intervention in 43% of patients within 6 months was successful in deprescribing risky medications, compared to 12% of patients without pharmacist intervention.

As the role of travel pharmacy clinicians expands, with an estimated 13,600 openings for pharmacists projected every year, according to the Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA),  the allied healthcare staffing market also grows by an average of 21% every year, bringing extensive new BHS exclusive travel pharmacy job opportunities for our skilled traveling pharmacists to choose from. 

The average travel pharmacist makes almost 94% more than the average permanently employed pharmacist across all industries. California is both the highest employing and highest paying state for pharmacists, but with Barton Healthcare Staffing, travel pharmacists can easily find an abundance of high-paying opportunities in every state across the country.

While pharmacists generally make the highest salaries working in scientific research and development services and outpatient care centers, Barton works with a wealth of varied clients who are all looking for talented travel pharmacists like yourself to fill gaps in coverage!

Through partnerships with nationally recognized vendors, Barton Healthcare Staffing is proud to offer our employed clinicians a wide variety of benefits:

Once my recruiter accepted the task of placing me into a travel nurse position, she totally committed herself. Within three weeks, I was flying off to an assignment that was well suited for my background, with an impressive pay and per diem compensation package.

My BHS recruiter has already put in more work, effort, time, and energy into fighting for me than the jobs with whom I was already working. Thank you and everyone who is fighting for workers like me.”
