Most people think of a pharmacist as a person dispensing prescription drugs from behind the counter, but Oxford pharmacists are much more than that. A vital part of our Pharmacy Home Monitoring Program, our pharmacists visit patients in their homes to conduct Oxford checks to:
Review a patient’s current medication regimen
Identify drug-related problems such as drug interactions, side effects and dosing issues
Conduct a medicine cabinet review, and remove expired or outdated medications (disposing of them responsibly)
Train patients on the use of medical devices such as a blood glucose meter or nebulizer
Create a current medication list (Best Possible Medication History)
Prepare a complete summary with recommendations on dosing, and changes to medication and/or medication regimen and send it to the patient’s physician and other members of the healthcare team
Develop an Individualized Care Plan for the patient’s ongoing home health monitoring by a nurse
Provide the physician and other members of the healthcare team with regular reports on health and medication status and concerns
