Nursing services that provide clinical and administrative support so your long-term care facility can focus on resident care
Nurses are on the front lines of resident care every day. Family Pharmacy’s nursing services deliver the resources long-term care facilities need to ensure exceptional resident care remains the top priority. From affordable generic prescriptions to advanced technology solutions, our nursing team offers extensive expertise to assist and support facility staff with administrative responsibilities such as medication tracking, billing, and authorizations. We also provide clinical support, medication cart audits, and in-service training to help enhance the safety and quality of care.
At Family Pharmacy, we believe long-term care facilities should never have to overpay for the medications their residents rely on. That’s why we offer a low Medicare-based pharmacy rate to every customer. But the value we provide goes far beyond cost savings. When you trust Family Pharmacy with your facility’s prescription medication services, you’ll pay less—and receive much more—including weekly or bi-weekly visits from a dedicated Family Pharmacy nurse.
Services tailored to your nursing team’s needs
From on-site visits to medication management and survey preparation, the Family Pharmacy nursing team maintains ongoing communication with every facility we serve. Our consultants stay fully up to date on state regulations in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. They can offer recommendations on proper medication storage, perform spot checks of refrigerated items and medication carts, and work directly with your staff to identify problem areas and implement effective solutions. These collaborative efforts help streamline workflow efficiencies while elevating the level of care provided to your residents.
Weekly written reports are shared with your director of nursing and administrative team to document updated procedural safeguards. The Family Pharmacy nursing team becomes an extension of your staff—working alongside you to support the best possible outcomes for both residents and your facility.
Support with state survey preparation
Preparing for state surveys can be one of the most demanding challenges in long-term care. Regulatory expectations continue to evolve, while resident needs never pause to give your team time to prepare. Family Pharmacy nurse consultants can assist your staff throughout the survey preparation process. We also conduct periodic mock surveys to help build confidence, identify gaps, and ensure your team is ready when the real survey occurs.
Technology that helps you safely and effectively manage resident medications
Nurses must balance resident satisfaction, clinical outcomes, documentation, and error reduction—all while delivering timely care. Family Pharmacy’s technology integrates smoothly with most EHR/eMAR systems, allowing facilities to track and monitor medication use, verify correct dosages for every resident, and electronically submit refill requests. It’s another way Family Pharmacy helps your facility save time, reduce risk, and operate efficiently.
