We have a number of pharmacists who provide consultant services to continuing care facilities and assisted living complexes. These pharmacists make on-site visits to the facilities and work closely with the caregivers, nurses and physicians to optimize and streamline therapy through written medication assessments with chart reviews and focused drug reviews.
