The pandemic-fueled boom in home care could be replicating one of the most worrisome hazards in institutional settings: bloodstream infections from central lines.

Driving the news: Home infusion therapy — whether for cancer drugs, antibiotics or other treatments — is becoming a preferred option for more patients.
"In the home, it's the patients, or sometimes a family member, sometimes a friend, or sometimes a neighbor that is basically doing the same work," she said.
That doesn't mean infection rates are higher outside the hospital, Keller said. “The best available data shows infections occur at a lower rate than in the hospital. But, because there are more and more people in home care, it is something we need to pay attention to,” Keller said.

January 09, 2023 The Changing of Pharmacy Residency with Tony Guerra, PharmD
A residency is a postgraduate training program, which allows the resident to perform as a licensed practitioner but to train under the supervision of an experienced preceptor. The cornerstones of any pharmacy practice residency include direct patient care and practice management. Tony Guerra & Todd Eury talk about the state of pharmacy residency and what the future holds for the current process and the statistics based on pharmacy school enrollment & the changes technology is making in the residency process.

January 06, 2023 The Creative & Comedic Side of Being a Pharmacist with Dr. Cory Jenks, PharmD
Dr. Cory Jenks, PharmD is a pharmacist, improv comedian and speaker currently practicing as an Ambulatory Care Clinical Pharmacy Specialist.

A pharmacist who does comedy?!

I know, enough with the stereotypes.

Cory has taught, coached, and performed improv comedy for thousands of people. Along the way, he realized that by making himself a better listener, teammate, and empathizer (among many other applicable skills), improv made him a better provider of healthcare.

Now Cory speaks, teaches, trains, and consults on the application of improv comedy to healthcare. By providing in person and virtual talks and workshops on applying the skills of improv comedy, he helps healthcare professionals develop the adaptability and resiliency needed to thrive in the healthcare environment. Cory teaches healthcare professionals how to be more empathetic and create an overall more humanizing healthcare experience by using the same skills as he has as an improv comedian. Additionally, Cory provides consulting to help healthcare organizations apply the skills of improvisational comedy for their employees and trainees.
