The Polish Pharmaceutical Chamber has 25,500 members including 2,000 hospital pharmacists in 590 hospital pharmacies across Poland.
In Poland, any medical entity providing stationary or non-involuntary services, if it does not create a hospital pharmacy, must create a hospital pharmacy department that acts as a hospital pharmacy but with a limited activity. There are 967 across the country. In each of them a pharmacist is employed at various times.
Having a specialization is not a condition for getting a job at a hospital pharmacy. Hospital pharmacists, however, want a specialization to be a requirement at least for the head of a hospital pharmacy. Currently, the specialization training lasts three years. This is a specialization in hospital pharmacy or clinical pharmacy. Pharmacists can gain a specialisation in the field of pharmacy, industrial pharmacy, radiopharmacy, pharmacology, toxicology, public health and environmental health.
