“Working with Kelley-Ross Long Term Care Pharmacy since 2006 we have improved the quality of care for our patients at Bailey-Boushay House. We provide cost-effective and compassionate care for our residents to help manage acute and chronic illness. Kelley-Ross has helped our organization achieve our quality goals by reducing medication distribution by 75% less time.
With the aid of our pharmacy partner Kelley-Ross, Bailey-Boushay House has automated single-dose packaging and streamlined re-ordering. Nurses spend 45 minuets (instead of 4 hours) giving out medication from an efficient, fully stocked mobile cart. We have also reduced the waste of unused medication by keeping on hand a three-day (rather than 30-day) supply of each prescription.
Most of these changes are invisible to our patients. What they experience is nurses with more time to educate, comfort and attend emergent care issues. Without a partner like Kelley-Ross we could not have achieved these significant results.”
