ASHP (American Society of Health-System Pharmacists) announced a partnership with ShiftRx, the first-in-market pharmacy staffing and workforce management platform, to further their shared commitment to uplifting the pharmacy workforce and delivering high-quality patient care across all healthcare settings.
Since its launch in 2023, ShiftRx has successfully connected thousands of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to both full-time and flexible work opportunities. Through this partnership, ASHP and ShiftRx will expand career opportunities for pharmacy professionals and provide a streamlined staffing resource for organizations, including hospitals and health systems, who are seeking access to skilled pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to meet critical staffing needs.

“ASHP has long been committed to advancing the professional growth of the pharmacy profession and ensuring patients have access to needed pharmacist care,” said Kathy Pawlicki, BSPharm, MS, RPh, FASHP, ASHP vice president of business development and strategy. “We are thrilled to work with ShiftRx to offer innovative workforce solutions, expanded career development opportunities, and essential support for pharmacy professionals and employers across all patient care settings. By working together, we can support the needs of the pharmacy workforce and ensure the profession thrives.”
Rather than offering short-term fixes, ShiftRx’s platform and innovative technology provide sustainable staffing solutions with a provider-first focus.

“Temporary work only provides a temporary fix, and we’re aiming to completely solve the burnout crisis among healthcare providers – starting with pharmacy,” said Autumn-Kyoko Cushman, CEO of ShiftRx. “We want pharmacy professionals to have the ability to leverage their license for additional income, gain exposure to new clinical workflows, upskill their careers, and ultimately, provide them expanded career opportunities. We’re excited to work with ASHP to enable healthcare providers to focus on what they do best — patient care.”
Currently available in California, Florida, New Jersey, New York, and Texas, ShiftRx plans to expand into other markets in the coming months. The goal is to support the needs of the pharmacy workforce across all 50 states.
This collaboration with ShiftRx complements ASHP’s robust suite of career resources for the pharmacy profession, including workforce education, training, and hiring platforms.
