RemediRx News http://www.remedirx.com/newsroom/newsdetails.aspx?id=14 2/4/2010 Remedi SeniorCare's Larry Kelley to Educate Virginia Long-Term Care Community on Pharmacy Regulatory Changes http://www.remedirx.com/newsroom/newsdetails.aspx.aspx?id=15 Baltimore, Md. (January 12, 2010) A Remedi SeniorCare long-term care pharmacy representative will provide in-depth information about important regulatory changes impacting Virginia nursing homes and assisted living facilities at the Virginia Health Care Association (VHCA) Pharmacy Update being held today in Richmond, Va. Larry Kelley, R.Ph., senior relationship manager for Remedi and an experienced long-term care pharmacist, will update attendees on key changes to the Drug Enforcement Administration s (DEA) policies regarding the prescribing, delivery and handling of Schedule II controlled substances (CII). Kelley s presentation will cover the complete list of essential information and processes, delivered as step-by-step checklists for administrators and nurses. There continue to be changes in how the DEA is enforcing the handling of controlled substances in long-term care, says Kelley. This update will help members of Virginia s long-term care community fully understand what everyone in the process prescribers, pharmacies and nurses have to do to remain compliant with DEA regulations. Kelley presents alongside two fellow pharmacists Hill Hopper, R.Ph., of Omnicare Inc., and Jeff Schneider, R.Ph., of Legacy Consultant Pharmacy to give attendees a full picture of the numerous changes going into effect this month for long-term care facilities in Virginia. The pharmacists, who collaborate frequently on educational programs for the long-term care community, will also discuss recent changes to regulations regarding STAT boxes and floor stocks of over-the-counter medications in facilities. A 39-year veteran of long-term care pharmacy, Kelley stays actively involved in state trade associations and works closely with state Boards of Pharmacy and legislative bodies to lobby for positive change for long-term care. His regular participation in events such as the VHCA Pharmacy Update exemplifies Remedi s commitment to the long-term care community. Some long-term care pharmacies have no involvement in their industry outside of being a vendor to their customers, says Kelley. From its inception, all the way back to its early roots, Remedi has always been deeply involved, not just as a vendor but in all areas of long-term care to make customers successful. We actively lend our voice and expertise to contribute to the success of our entire industry.
