Pharmacist – Costco – Regina, SK

Costco’s pharmacy in Regina, Saskatchewan is looking for a licensed Pharmacist to join the team at the 2110 Anaquod Road location. This is a patient-centred role that goes well beyond the dispensary counter — Costco Pharmacy operates under an expanded scope of practice model, giving pharmacists the opportunity to practise to the fullest extent permitted by provincial regulations.

From conducting full medication reviews and administering injections to adapting prescriptions and running health and wellness clinics, this position offers a level of clinical engagement that sets it apart from a traditional dispensing role. You’ll collaborate with other health care professionals, supervise pharmacy staff, and build meaningful relationships with members every shift.

About the Role: Pharmacist

As a Pharmacist at Costco Regina, your core focus is delivering direct patient care — dispensing medications accurately, verifying therapeutic appropriateness, and educating patients on proper medication use. You’ll check for drug interactions, allergies, contraindications, dosing accuracy, and appropriate dosage forms as part of every prescription review. You’ll also work closely with a Registered Technician to ensure tasks are distributed efficiently across the dispensary.

This role requires a commitment to patient safety, professional standards, and continuous learning. You’ll maintain required certifications, participate in continuing education, and uphold Costco Pharmacy’s policies and security procedures. In the absence of the pharmacy manager, you’ll step into the Pharmacist-In-Charge role, overseeing dispensary operations and supervising pharmacy interns and students.
