2. Justify the following statements with suitable examples.
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Pharmacist has a great importance in the field of Medical Science.

Justification: A pharmacist is tasked with assessing medication management in patients, and in referring patients to physicians. A pharmacist will compound medicines, something that takes care and skill. Pharmacists also provide patients with health monitoring and advice, including advice and treatment of common ailments and disease states.

Nursing is a human service related profession.

Justification: Nurses are, in addition to their medical duties, tasked with maintaining a rapport with patients and are often the face that patients see the most. Thus, nurses may also provide emotional support and care for their needs as people rather than just patients. This includes providing patients with the kind of pudding that they like, or offering them a blanket because they get cold at night. These small gestures make a difference.

Medical Science is an important sector all over the globe.

Justification: Humans in all corners of the world require medical care. Advancements in medical science create ripples throughout the world and improve lives beyond the borders of one's own country.
