I need to understand how to verify a pharmacist's license in California. On the California State Board of Pharmacy website, navigate to the 'Verify a License' page. Based on the instructions provided, describe the steps to initiate a search for a pharmacist, what specific information is required to perform the search, and what the page indicates about how disciplinary actions are displayed in the search results.
Navigate to 'pharmacy.ca.gov'. Click on the 'Verify a License' link. Identify the section that provides instructions for conducting a license search. Extract the steps for initiating a search for a pharmacist, including the initial selection of license type. Identify and list the specific criteria (e.g., name, license number, city, zip code) required to perform a search, noting any restrictions on combining criteria. Identify and describe how disciplinary actions are indicated in the search results, according to the information on the page. Synthesize all gathered information into a concise answer.
The agent successfully navigates to the 'Verify a License' page (https://pharmacy.ca.gov/about/verify_lic.shtml). The agent states that to initiate a search, one must first select a license type, specifically mentioning 'Pharmacist' as an option. The agent accurately lists the required search information: 'first and/or last name' OR 'license number (without the prefix)'. The agent correctly states that 'Only enter the name or the license number - do not use both'. The agent correctly states that 'A zip code or city as a second criteria will narrow down the search'. The agent accurately describes how disciplinary actions are displayed: 'The search results for the licensee will indicate "Yes" under the Actions column if there is disciplinary information on the record.' The agent also states that to see all information, including disciplinary action, the user must click on the highlighted name.
