This award winning Advanced Medication Management Program helps clients find solutions to address complex health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, COPD, and hypertension. Trained coordinators and pharmacists work together to create safe and effective medication management plans catered to meet each individuals needs. At this time, we are working with patients over the age of 50 with chronic health conditions and who take multiple prescriptions.
Our purpose is to ensure our clients are using medications in the most safe and effective way!
This service works in tandem with physicians and other health care team providers. Our Advanced Medication Care Coordinator (AMCC) is a specialized role designed to support our clients with targeted care coordination around medications. We help clients become knowledgeable about prescriptions, more skilled and accountable in managing their health, and reduce anxiety or uncertainness.
