As pharmacies make strides toward compliance with USP <800> standards that pertain to hazardous drug safety, many recognize that they protect employees and patients best when they have optimal training, processes, and procedures in place.
TRC Healthcare created the RxAdvanced: Hazardous Drugs program to help pharmacists fill gaps in their knowledge of safe hazardous drug handling in a healthcare setting. This training program provides five hours of ACPE-accredited training that prepares pharmacists for proper care and handling of hazardous drugs at every stage—from receipt to disposal.
Access to this program is valid for 12 months from date of purchase. Courses must be completed before access expires.
This self-guided, online training—built by subject matter experts with extensive knowledge in USP hazardous drug standards—is available to pharmacists 24/7. Pharmacists not only learn the most relevant content within USP <800>; they acquire valuable operational knowledge that promotes safer work practices, better construction and design, and improved processes in your pharmacy. The program is updated regularly so your pharmacists stay current with best practices for handling hazardous drugs.
Pharmacists can complete the highly interactive program in short, self-guided segments that are easy to stop and start. The format allows each user to measure existing knowledge and to check mastery of new content. The training integrates related content, including USP Chapter <797>.
