For the medication use process involving chemotherapy infusions, what is best practice? We are reviewing our current process and I wish to know what other pharmacies are doing for inpatient and outpatient chemotherapy infusions. We have CPOE & BCMA as part of the process. Do you have two pharmacists independently verify the order prior to compounding? Does the person preparing infusion select the medication? Do you have a checklist? Do you utilize IV workflow software? Do you have two people verify compounded product prior to administration?
Many questions regarding the best practice for chemotherapy and what other facilities are doing.
Thanks!
Laura
