Pharmacy Department

Community Memorial Hospital Pharmacy:

Our pharmacist helps to ensure safe and effective treatment through interdisciplinary medication management with your care team.  Medication preparation and dispensing services at Community Memorial Hospital are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to patients staying within our facility.  Your medications are carefully evaluated by a pharmacist for correct dosing, route, indication and duration.  Side effects and potential interactions with other medications are also evaluated to ensure safety.

ePharmacy Services:

Avera ePharmacy services provides Telepharmacy coverage for patients within our facility during after-hours.  This innovative technology helps to ensure continuity of care through the same evaluation of your medications while a pharmacist is not physically on site.

Anticoagulation Clinic Services:

The Redfield Anticoagulation Clinic, led by Alyssa Osborn Howard, Pharm.D., provides care for patients on anticoagulant medication.  This program requires only a finger prick to determine a patient’s INR value.  With a Clinical Pharmacist leading the program, the manipulation of your medication is handled with expertise.
