A Hospital Administrator's Guide

 

Is your hospital or off-site clinic ready for the upcoming publication of revised USP Chapter 797 (sterile compounding) and enforcement of USP Chapter 800 (hazardous drugs)?

These important standards for patient and staff safety will be a focus of CMS-accrediting organizations and state boards of pharmacy.  All of your pharmacy stakeholders must be aware of what’s changing.

During this webinar, the CPS Compliance and Regulatory Services team discussed the upcoming chapter revisions.  They also reviewed proposed changes with an emphasis on how hospital and clinic leaders can best position their pharmacies to meet them head-on.


Audience members:

• Reviewed the upcoming USP 797 and 800 chapter revisions
• Explored their potential implications for hospital pharmacies
• Discuss valuable partnerships and resources
