Medicine Boxes

Our experienced clinical pharmacists carefully examine resident medications to ensure optimal drug therapy. We consider discontinuation of unnecessary or inappropriate medications, recommendations for wellness opportunities and under-treatment issues, identification and prevention of drug interactions, and adverse drug events. Interventions by our pharmacist can improve quality of life, health outcomes, and reduce costs.
