Who needs special packaging?

 Nursing homes. Long-term care or elder daycare facilities. Visiting nurses. Even family members responsible for a relative who requires regular medications. All caregivers can benefit from the convenience and quality assurance of this service. Each patient has unique medication demands. Often, they need more than one drug. And when you multiply then umber of patients, you can see why it is crucial to have the right medicines ready at the right time. That’s why we’re your Welcare Pharmacy for special packaging: Putting each patient’s medicines in handy blister packs or medication planners. You are assured a thorough check for accuracy and drug interactions. You won’t find this service at just any pharmacy – including some of the biggest chain stores. It’s one more way your Welcare pharmacist goes the extra mile – taking the stress and guesswork out of handling multiple prescriptions.

How does it help nursing homes?

 Nursing homes are required by law to package most drugs with specific information, including lot numbers and expiration dates. So they need separate bubble packaging for each drug.
Nurses can administer medications, but don’t have a license to dispense drugs. That’s why every medication has to be individually marked and packaged.
Big nursing home facilities get their medications from big, institutional pharmacies – often, they’re the only game in town. That’s the expensive route.
Welcare Prescriptions provides special packaging for any drug, in single- or multi-dose blister packs, for up to four drugs per package.

How does it help visiting nurses?

Visiting nurses can bring all the prescriptions for their many patients to us. That means they can spend less time chasing down prescriptions and more time visiting and nursing.

Can individuals take advantage of this service?

Yes. If you’re caring for someone who takes several medications on a regular schedule, this service can simplify your job. You can count on the correct medicines and dosages, ready whenever they are needed.
