Two U.S.-trained pharmacists, Josh Ghiringhelli (Michigan) and Jay Worthington (North Carolina) made the move north—and discovered that practicing in Nova Scotia is anything but business as usual. In this podcast, PANS' Recruitment Navigator Tristan Park sits down with Josh and Jay at the PANS office for a real conversation about their experiences with cross‑border licensure, expanded scope of practice, and what it’s actually like to build a career (and a life) in Canada’s east‑coast province. From prescribing differences and practice models to coastal living and professional growth, we explore the moments that surprised them, challenged them, and changed how they think about pharmacy. Whether you’re a pharmacist curious about practicing in Nova Scotia, considering an international move, or simply interested in how pharmacy practice can evolve, this podcast offers honest insight from two people living it in real time. We’ve made it easier for pharmacy professionals from the US, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand to join pharmacy practice in Nova Scotia – no national competency exam (PEBC) or internship required!
