long term care pharmacy services
DESCRIPTION
At TruCare Pharmacy, we realize that people are unique and don’t always fit into a standard mold. Everyone is different, and as such, many people will not respond properly to mass-produced drugs. Compounding offers your doctor the option to prescribe compounded drugs that are personalized to your unique needs. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT
Move Forward with Dignity and Greater Quality of Life
TruCare Pharmacy provides quality pharmaceuticals to skilled nursing homes, hospice programs and assisted living homes.
TruCare works with each of our customers individually, streamlining the communication process to ensure that resident care is working as accurately and as efficiently as it should be.
“In the coming decades, many Americans will not have a way to pay for long-term care services. As the population is aging, the need for long-term care services is exploding. However, as the need for services increases, government funding will not be able to keep up, undermining a critical component of the nation’s health care delivery system.”
