Sara Panella, PharmD, BCPS Manager of Pharmacy Ambulatory Care, Population Health and Transitions of Care Clinical Pharmacy Enterprise

Charles Page, PharmD, RPh


Summary: Medication-related adverse events (AEs) in general practice represent an important cause of morbidity and are thought to cause between 10% and 30% of all hospital admissions in older patients.(National Library of Medicine).  Part of the answer resolving this problem is better engagement of  pharmacists within the interdisciplinary care team in support of better transitions and care coordination.  Pharmacists have a significant role in working with providers, patients and their identified family caregiver.  Taking a medication assessment, incorporating those findings into a medication care plan and providing education and coordination is a commitment transitions of care pharmacists are making every day.  This presentation will discuss that role and discuss 10 key pharmacists’ principles developed by the NTOCC TOC Pharmacists Task Force that support a safer and more positive patient journey.

Objectives:

  1. Review the gaps and barriers related to poor transitions of care specific to medication management

  2. List the tasks related to Medication Management Services

  3. Discuss the reimbursement issues for pharmacists related to transitions of care interventions

Speakers: Dr. Sara M. Panella, PharmD, BCPS is currently the Manager of Pharmacy Ambulatory Care, Population Health and Transitions of Care Clinical Pharmacy Services for Baptist Health Enterprise, Baptist Health South Florida, in Miami Lakes, Florida. Dr. Panella obtained her Doctor of Pharmacy from the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy (EMSOP), Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in 2008. After graduation, she completed a Pharmacy Practice Residency at Yale-New Haven Hospital followed by a PGY-2 Specialty Pharmacy Residency in Drug Information at Robert Wood Johns University Hospital/EMSOP.

She started her career in TOC at University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore, MD and has since developed TOC programs there as well as at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, FL. Dr. Panella has also held academic positions at EMSOP as a Clinical Assistant Professor and at Nova Southeastern University as an Assistant Professor, and has also been a previous Residency Program Director for a PGY-2 in Transitions of Care. 

Dr. Charles Page, PharmD, RPh has been the Director of Pharmacy at Geer Village Senior Living in Canaan, CT for 19 years.  Dr. Page obtained his BS in pharmacy from the University of Connecticut in 1993 and completed his Pharmacy Doctorate in 2001 at Creighton University.  

Dr. Page started his career in community pharmacy, then spent 4 years in home infusion pharmacy before landing in long term care.  His unique practice setting on the campus of an elder care community offers numerous opportunities for engagement with fellow staff in transitions of care for the patients he serves, and he sees this role as a good platform to spread the word about the importance of greater pharmacist involvement in care transitions.
