Home health monitoring starts with a home visit from your pharmacist
Most people think of a pharmacist as a person dispensing prescription drugs from behind the counter, but Oxford pharmacists are much more than that. As part of our Home Monitoring Program, our pharmacists visit patients in their homes to:
- Review a patient's current medication regimen
- Identify drug-related problems such as interactions, side effects, and dosing issues
- Conduct a medicine cabinet review and safely dispose of expired or outdated medications
- Train patients on medical devices such as blood glucose meters or nebulizers
- Create a current medication list (Best Possible Medication History)
- Prepare a complete summary with dosing recommendations for the patient's physician
- Develop an individualized care plan for ongoing home health monitoring by a nurse
- Provide the healthcare team with regular reports on health and medication status
