PHI Pharmacy continues to coordinate with the Commonwealth Healthcare Corp. to provide proper patient care for the community.<\/p>\n
In a statement from Joshua Wise, general manager of PHI Pharmacy, the pharmacy has been renewed for at least a year with options to renew up to a total of five years, given that CHCC and PHI have reached an agreement on the lease after every year.<\/p>\n
With the renewed lease, PHI Pharmacy would be staying at the Commonwealth Health Center to further serve the patients in need of pharmaceuticals. <\/p>\n
\u201cThere are two outpatient pharmacies in CHC now, and the thing we are trying to avoid the most is confusion,\u201d said Wise in an interview.<\/p>\n
Wise explained that because there are now two pharmacies at CHC, patients could easily mistake one pharmacy for the other and possibly not get the prescription medicine they need.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026Sometimes the prescription medicine is not there, so there is this confusion with patients on which pharmacy to go to,\u201d Wise said.<\/p>\n
According to Wise, today would be the care transition meeting, where PHI and CHCC officials meet to discuss issues pertaining to the transition of care for patients.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is kind of where those particular topics come up, so I would be discussing that with them [today],\u201d he said, referring to the possible confusion of having two outpatient pharmacies.<\/p>\n
\u201c[The meeting is for] making sure [patients] are taken care of when they are discharged and making sure patients aren\u2019t confused where to get their medicine is something we can help to clarify,\u201d Wise added. \u201cWe will work with CHCC on a system to combat confusion.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
