Unit inspections are important to ensure medications are properly stored and compounded, especially in areas outside of the cleanroom, as a significant proportion of low-risk compounding can occur on the patient unit and is performed by non-pharmacy healthcare personnel.
These individuals require proper training and regular oversight to ensure that they conform to USP Chapter 797 or comply with the specific standards established by the state in which they practice.
We've developed the Medication Safety Inspection Checklist to assist your facility and personnel in maintaining compliance.
