CHICAGO - Aug. 27, 2024 - PRLog -- Forum Extended Care Services proudly announces its achievement of Accreditation in Long-Term Care and Infusion Pharmacy through the Accreditation Commission for Health Care and in Compounding Pharmacy through ACHC's Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board (PCAB). The accreditations are awarded in recognition of the pharmacy's commitment to meeting and/or exceeding national quality standards.
Accreditation is a process through which healthcare organizations demonstrate compliance with national standards. PCAB and ACHC Accreditation reflect an organization's dedication and commitment to meeting standards that facilitate a higher level of performance and patient care.
"Achieving PCAB and ACHC Accreditation is a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality in long-term care, infusion, and compounding pharmacy," said Brian Kramer, RPh, MBA, President & CIO. "By achieving this, our customers can be assured that we follow industry best practices and are in compliance with the most stringent national standards."
"This recognition would not be possible without the dedication and expertise of our entire team," Kramer added. " I am incredibly proud of their hard work and the positive impact it has on the lives of our patients."
Established in 2007, PCAB was founded by eight of the nation's leading pharmacy organizations to create voluntary quality accreditation designation for the compounding industry. The organization promotes, develops, and maintains principles, policies, and standards for improving the quality of pharmacy compounding nationwide. In 2014, PCAB accreditation became a service of Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC), whereby ACHC administers the PCAB Accreditation program.
