About Walmart Health and Wellness
Walmart's Health and Wellness departments — spanning pharmacy OTC, vitamins and supplements, personal care, cosmetics, and the growing Walmart Health clinic initiative — serve customers who are making important decisions about their physical wellbeing.

Key Responsibilities
- Stock OTC pharmacy, vitamin, supplement, personal care, and cosmetics shelves maintaining full availability and proper product placement.
- Assist customers navigating OTC medication options, vitamin selections, and personal care products with helpful, non-diagnostic guidance.
