Presented by Joe Litsey, RPh, PharmD, CGP, Director of Consulting Services, Thrifty White Pharmacy and Michelle Nemec, PharmD, Thrifty White Pharmacy

Transitions of care provide pharmacists the opportunity to improve health outcomes as patients move between health care settings.

Improving communication between the local hospitals and Thrifty White has allowed potential problems to be solved sooner and medications to arrive at the facility earlier in the day. This demonstrates the need for a continuity of care across all health care transitions and these concepts can be applied in several types of pharmacy settings.


• Describe medication management challenges for LTC communities and pharmacies and predict how these challenges may lead to potentially avoidable patient transfers and hospital readmissions.
