What is the ratio of pharmacists to technicians in institutional pharmacies?

The correct answer is: 1:3

Institutional pharmacies are those found in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities. These types of pharmacies typically have more complex medication needs and require a larger number of pharmacy technicians to assist with dispensing and compounding medications. Given this higher demand for technicians, it is common to have a ratio of 1 pharmacist to 3 technicians in institutional pharmacies. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the typical ratio for this type of pharmacy setting.
