Stock and expiry — articles for medical stores
A one-page training sheet for new staff at a medical store: what each line on a strip means, where the batch and expiry hide, and the mistakes to avoid.
What PTR, PTS and MRP mean, how distributors work them out from the MRP, and how schemes like 10+1 change your real buying price — with a worked example.
What to do with medicines that expire in the next 90 days: see them early, sell them honestly, return them on time and buy so it happens less.
How to find medicines that have not sold in 90 or 180 days, what that stock really costs you, and a simple way to stop it coming back.
Where insulin and vaccines go in the fridge, what freezing does to them, how to keep a temperature record, and what to tell the patient at the counter.
