The Department of Pharmacy is a dynamic, integral and critical part of patient care provided by the NEW CROSS MEDICAL CENTER Hospital. The Department is responsible for the provision of pharmaceutical services to the Hospital.
“Pharmaceutical services” is the term used to represent all the services pharmacists require to resolve a patient’s drug therapy problems. These services include provision of drug information, patient counseling, medicines compounding and distribution. Our commitment extends to our patients and community and encompasses service and research to optimize medication-related outcomes. We continue to contribute to the Hospital’s clarity.
