A registered nurse (RN) and a pharmacist are two distinct healthcare professions with different educational requirements, scopes of practice, and licensing processes. While there are some similarities in the knowledge and skills required for both roles, pursuing a career as a pharmacist typically involves obtaining a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree and becoming licensed as a pharmacist, whereas registered nurses obtain an associate's degree or a bachelor's degree in nursing and become licensed as nurses.
If an RN desires to become a pharmacist, they would need to meet the educational requirements and obtain the necessary licensure for a career in pharmacy. This would likely involve pursuing a PharmD program and completing the requisite training and credentialing required for practicing as a pharmacist.
