Benefits of Pharmacy service at Arogin Care Home

Organizing the medications of its residents is one of the most important tasks for any Care Home facility. This can be difficult because many individuals take multiple daily medications that are subject to frequent change. Organizing and distributing medicines is, therefore, a critical responsibility for care home employees, and it takes a significant amount of time for management.

Therefore, Arogin Care Home came up with the idea to have their own pharmacy within the same premises for the following reasons as follows:

• This service is a one-stop service for all the medications that residents need.
• It is an innovative way to provide healthcare solutions for the elderly.
• It’s not only about providing medications but also about educating the patients about their medications and helping them understand how to take them.
• The pharmacy staff is trained in counseling, communication, and customer service skills to help patients with their medication needs.
