ANNOTATION: This is a great example of a policy that describes the operation of a prison based pharmacy and the provision of prescriptions to inmates. It could serve as a template for those agencies looking to create and implement such a component of a health services delivery system. Procedures include: general protocol covering Pharmacy Consultant, purchasing and inventory controls, medication returns, medication prescriptions, medication for inmates leaving institution, formulary, medication administration system, and medication profiles; administration and dispensing of medications; controlled substances; prescriptions; over-the-counter (OTC) medication; purchasing and inventory control; syringe and needle control; and forced administration of psychotropic medications.
