Use Cases

Description:

Antimicrobial Stewardship

Avel eCare Pharmacy also offers providers the support they need to create, implement and maintain an antimicrobial stewardship plan. When customers take advantage of our Antimicrobial Stewardship services they’ll have the expert oversight needed to:

  • Improve the use of antimicrobial medications
  • Enhance patient outcomes
  • Reduce resistance to antibiotics

Reduce Antimicrobial Resistance

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, The Joint Commission and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that all health care settings use antimicrobials judiciously to reduce the likelihood of antimicrobial resistance.

Look to our expert pharmacists to:

  • Verify that antimicrobials prescribed for common infections (urinary tract infection, pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infection, clostridium difficile, methacillin-resistant staph aureus, etc.) comply with standards, clinical guidelines and protocols in your institution
  • Follow culture results to ensure the organism is covered by the antimicrobial regimen and to suggest a more narrow-spectrum treatment, if appropriate
  • Ensure appropriate dosing of agents based upon renal and hepatic function
  • Provide patient-specific pharmacokinetic dosing, such as aminoglycosides or vancomycin

If a facility does not have an on-site pharmacist, Avel eCare Pharmacy can also complete an antibiotic review within 48 hours to achieve compliance with the antibiotic time out.

Consultative

Enhance your Avel eCare Pharmacy experience with advanced two-way video technology. When you take advantage of our live audiovisual and still image services, you can support pharmacy services with:

  • Patient discharge consultations
  • Remote supervision of nurse sterile medication preparation
  • Remote supervision of nurse automated dispensing cabinet refills
  • Verification of medications removed from pharmacy after-hours
  • Identification of patient medications brought from home
  • Video consultations between Avel eCare Pharmacy staff and your health care professionals

Outpatient

Support medication safety and pharmacy services at your facility through Avel eCare Pharmacy’s remote review and verification of outpatient orders. Our Outpatient Services include:

  • Remote video supervision of nurse sterile medication preparation
  • Chemotherapy orders that are checked by two independent pharmacists such as one on-site and one Avel eCare Pharmacy or two independent Avel eCare Pharmacy checks
  • Clinical monitoring of outpatient therapies during a course of therapy

Medication Review

Avel’s Medication Review services ensure that customers meet federal regulations with 24/7 pharmacist oversight of any newly ordered medicine before it’s administered. Facilities with Avel eCare Pharmacy support can increase patient safety and regulatory compliance through the prospective review of medication orders, including:

  • Allergy history
  • Dosage recommendations
  • Drug compatibility
  • Duplication of therapy
  • Lab review
  • Patient demographic information
