SP Central Telepharmacy
Working with the System
Though bringing this system on board did not enable us to reduce our staff levels, it has enabled us to make better use of the pharmacists that we have by allowing them to check products remotely at their convenience, thereby eliminating the need for a pharmacist to be physically present at the time of compounding. Most importantly, this process adds a safeguard to our chemotherapy preparation process. We can now replicate the impact of having a pharmacist present at the point of admixture by having them review all admixture steps retrospectively.

We do not expect that to change or get better. But we have survived. Our profession has always been a battlefield, so the national economy is just another skirmish.
