"As a new pharmacy technician, I realize I may encounter a situation where I'm asked to perform a task I don't know how to do or may not feel comfortable doing on my own just yet. I would first be honest that I don't have the experience or training to complete the task, but express that I would be willing to learn! I would ask if there was a colleague or supervisor to assist me. If it were an admin task, I would see if I could self-help and research how-to online through an article or video. I would never attempt something I didn't feel comfortable with my abilities to do so, especially if it could endanger a patient or cause the NHS harm."
