Pharmaceutical Care for Underserved Elderly
Pharmaceutical Care is a group of
services that optimize medication therapeutic outcomes for individual
seniors. The service is provided by licensed pharmacists, in the home or
other location as determined by the individual elders and is available
in the seven-county Metropolitan area (Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin,
Ramsey, Scott and Washington). The target populations are seniors who:
-
have multiple medications (4+
medications including over-the-counter drugs) and has no other
identified resources available to assist them with medication therapy
management;
-
are determined to be frail and
homebound by reason of illness, disability or functional need, or
otherwise isolated;
-
have the greatest economic and social
need with particular attention to being low-income and a minority.

licensed pharmacist. FPS’s pharmaceutical care includes:
