What must each nursing home (NH) provide in terms of pharmacy services?

A pharmacist on either full time, part time, or consultant basis or by contracting with a pharmacy
A 24-hour on-site pharmacy
An automated dispensing system
Access to an online pharmacy only

The correct answer is: A pharmacist on either full time, part time, or consultant basis or by contracting with a pharmacy

Each nursing home is required to provide pharmacy services, which can be fulfilled by having a pharmacist on either a full time, part time, or consultant basis or by contracting with a pharmacy. This option allows for flexibility in meeting the needs of the nursing home residents while still ensuring access to a professional pharmacist. Option B is incorrect because it suggests that a nursing home must have a 24-hour on-site pharmacy, which may not be feasible for all facilities. Option C is incorrect because while an automated dispensing system can be a valuable tool, it cannot replace the role of a pharmacist in providing comprehensive medication management. Option D is incorrect because it limits access to only an online pharmacy, which may not meet the specific needs of all nursing home residents. The correct answer provides the most comprehensive and flexible approach to meeting pharmacy service requirements for a nursing home.
