Gansu hospital dispensing robot to achieve medicine and other people, the future pharmacist will not be unemployed?

Going to the hospital to see the sick people believe that there has been such an experience, because the hospital is often a lot of people, and even sometimes overcrowded, so in the end of the visit to get medicine, always have to queue up for a long time. Long time to get medicine? This problem is an old problem in many hospitals, so some hospitals in order to save the patient's time, will introduce some robots to help dispensing. A hospital in Gansu introduced two dispensing robots, with the help of robots, the phenomenon of long queues of hospitals waiting for medication in the past has been greatly reduced, saving a lot of patients waiting time. These two robots are undoubtedly the best example of how technology can change life. However, some people have raised concerns that after the popularization of this kind of machine, will it lead to the unemployment of pharmacists?

Without these two machines, hospitals do dispense medication mainly by pharmacists, and with these two machines, the pharmacists' workload has been greatly reduced, but that doesn't mean that hospitals don't need pharmacists. Pharmacists to the patient dispensing, giving medicine is only the pharmacist's most simple and most common work, do not need to be monotonous and simple after the dispensing, they can also help the doctor to prescribe medication, to provide patients with a more reasonable medication program, or to join the drug research and development, and so on. In short, hospitals or research centers need good pharmacists, and they won't lose their jobs because they don't need to dispense drugs.

Although they can dispense medication quickly, these robots have some disadvantages compared to normal humans. The main disadvantage is that they can only dispense medication according to the materials on the drug list, not according to the patient's specific situation, according to the individual to give a reasonable program of dispensing, and no way to accept the patient's inquiries, to answer the patient's questions about the drug. Therefore, we can see that these robots still have room for improvement, from the current point of view, the work of these robots is still more mechanical and repetitive.

The purpose of robots is not to replace people, but to give them a better life.
