    definitely an expanding specialty within
  • 00:00:02
    clinical pharmacy I know within the
  • 00:00:05
    artery J Barnabas health system we are
  • 00:00:08
    starting to see more of it within the
  • 00:00:10
    other hospitals we are very lucky at
  • 00:00:12
    Community Medical Center to have
  • 00:00:14
    seven-day-a-week coverage so on any
  • 00:00:15
    given day we work with a wide variety of
  • 00:00:18
    healthcare professionals so obviously we
  • 00:00:20
    work with very closely with the nurse
  • 00:00:23
    and the physician we work with EMS very
  • 00:00:26
    closely so we're talking to them about
  • 00:00:28
    the patients that they're bringing in
  • 00:00:29
    especially the critical patients and
  • 00:00:31
    what they've done for them so far
  • 00:00:32
    getting a better sense of you know what
  • 00:00:35
    the patient should need and I mean
  • 00:00:37
    anything from the ICU pharmacist and the
  • 00:00:41
    physicians
  • 00:00:42
    to the techs who you know work with us
  • 00:00:45
    closely and draw any necessary labs that
  • 00:00:47
    we need for the patient's so we really
  • 00:00:49
    hit with a little bit of any of the
  • 00:00:51
    healthcare professional team so we do
  • 00:00:53
    interact with the patient's a lot a
  • 00:00:56
    large percentage of our time so it's
  • 00:00:58
    it's really bedside patient care with
  • 00:01:00
    the emergency medicine pharmacy not only
  • 00:01:02
    clarifying allergies but finding out
  • 00:01:04
    what medications they're on seeing what
  • 00:01:06
    we need to do for the patients and even
  • 00:01:08
    explaining what we're doing in terms of
  • 00:01:10
    the medication care for some of the
  • 00:01:12
    sicker patients both to the patients or
  • 00:01:14
    their family members if need be the
  • 00:01:16
    value that we bring to the patients and
  • 00:01:18
    the emergency department I think is
  • 00:01:19
    really safer more effective patient care
  • 00:01:22
    and making sure that we're we're using
  • 00:01:25
    the most up-to-date guidelines and
  • 00:01:26
    making sure we're preventing any
  • 00:01:28
    medication errors that would have
