Aisle OVERVIEW

A hospital (health system) pharmacy is responsible for procuring, preparing, dispensing, and managing medications for patients admitted to the hospital (in-patients) and in certain cases, patients in the local community (out-patients). The hospital pharmacy staff ensures the six rights (the right patient, medication, indication, dose, time, and route). Hospital pharmacies also provide services like drug therapy management, clinical consultation, and patient education to optimize therapeutic outcomes.

Hospital pharmacies typically consist of a team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy interns who work closely with doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers. The team often includes clinical pharmacists who specialize in particular areas (e.g., oncology, pediatrics, or critical care) and medication safety officers who focus on minimizing medication errors and improving patient outcomes. In-patient hospital pharmacies are closed to the public (closed-door pharmacy), while an out-patient pharmacy in a hospital is open to the public and operates similarly to a retail/community pharmacy.
