Step 2: Pharmacist requirement for hospitals up to 300 beds. - For hospitals with up to 300 beds, a minimum of 10 pharmacists is required.
- For larger hospitals (above 300 beds), additional pharmacists are needed based on workload.
Step 3: Why other options are incorrect.
- (A) 8: Less than the recommended requirement for a 300-bed hospital.
