Baxa Star Center = accuracy & validation & documentation = = = = = = = Patient Safety and Peak Performance Through Pharmacy Training
Baxa Corporation has focused its product development efforts on tools that streamline pharmacy operations and improve patient safety. After the release of the USP guidelines for sterile compounding, the company developed training tools and support materials that would enable hospital pharmacies to comply with USP requirements using Baxa hardware and software.
Pharmacy personnel must take personal and legal responsibility for the quality and accuracy of the compounds they prepare and dispense24. Baxa invested in the Center because it believes that the best way for pharmacists and other professionals to understand and implement state-ofthe-art standards of practice is for them to have practical, hands-on experience with expert trainers.
