All NESP Pharmacies offer the following core services:
medication synchronization
Aligning a patient’s routine medications to be filled at the same time each month. The pharmacists will provide clinical medication management and monitoring for progression toward desired therapeutic goals during the patient appointment at time of medication pick-up or delivery.
IMMUNIZATIONS
Screen patients for Centers for Disease Control Advisory Committee on Immunizations Practices recommended immunizations, educate patients about needed immunizations and administer immunizations when appropriate.
medication reconciliation
The process of comparing a patient’s medication orders to all of the medications that the patient has been taking (active, chronic, as needed and OTC including herbal) to avoid medication errors. This service is especially important during transitions of care when patients are most vulnerable to medication errors or mishaps.
comprehensive medication reviews
A 10 step process involves systemic assessment of medications, including prescription, over-the-counter, herbal medications and dietary supplements to identify medication-related problems, prioritize a list of medication therapy problems and create a patient-specific plan to resolve medication therapy problems working with the extended healthcare team.
in depth counseling
Additional counseling offered in the pharmacy, requiring a pharmacist or qualified staff member to step out of traditional pharmacy workflow and provide intensive counseling.
PERSONAL medication recoRD
Create a comprehensive list of current patient medications manually or from dispensing software.
adherence packaging
Packaging designed to assist patients with medication organization by incorporating date and time into the device. This service may include the pharmacist working with the patients and/or their caregivers to determine an appropriate adherence packaging system such as bubble packing, medication strips, med planners, or automated medication planners. The pharmacist will work closely with patients, caregivers, and prescribers to make sure that the medications including dosing regimens are up-to-date routinely
