Sheela Das

Pharmacy Technician
William P. Clements Jr. University Hospital Pharmacy

First UTSW job: Pharmacy Technician.

Best part about my job: My job mainly involves sterile compounding of intravenous solutions in the pharmacy.

What energizes me at work: Self-motivation. Sometimes, no one will be around to support your good work but on the other side, there is always a patient who appreciates the timely care and medication they receive. Pharmacy has a great role in patient care.

How co-workers describe me: Knowledgeable, expert at my work, respectful toward co-workers, with a good attitude toward patient care.

Recipe for success: Hold on to your stand when others push you down.

Best UTSW memory: I was able to be around some great people at my department from different ethnicities and learned a lot in our journey from the former St. Paul University Hospital to UTSW. Many are retired and now it is just a sweet and unforgettable memory.

Hobbies: I like to cook whenever I get the opportunity. My husband and kids enjoy homemade tasty food!
