We hope your summer has brought a mix of adventure, meaningful time with family and friends, and opportunities for professional growth. And dare I say we hope you’ve had a minute to unplug and read some great books or watch some new shows? For members of the Rpharmy team—John, Caroline, and I—it’s been all of the above. We recently traveled to Romania for an exciting first: meeting our talented team of product developers and business analysts in person.

From Regimen to Risk: How Clients Are Protecting Healthcare Workers from Hazardous Body Fluids
At Rpharmy, we pride ourselves on the relationships we've built with our clients over the years. These trusted partnerships often lead to eye-opening conversations—conversations that help us understand the real challenges healthcare teams face and how we can better support them. One such discussion recently centered on a deceptively simple but critical question.

Does Pharmacy’s Role End at the Door? Nurses Don’t Think So.
Rpharmy has been on the road again, connecting with pharmacy professionals and healthcare leaders at events across the country, including the 2025 ONS Congress. We always love the opportunity to meet with our valued customers and those just getting to know us.
At ONS, we had truly insightful conversations with oncology nurses about their hazardous drug safety programs. One recurring theme? Communication gaps. Many nurses shared that their facilities still struggle to clearly communicate safety protocols related to hazardous drug handling.
This got us thinking: “Does the pharmacy’s obligation stop at the door?”
In other words, once the safety protocols are determined and documented, is it up to the nurses and other healthcare workers to access and follow them?
We say: Absolutely not. And USP <800> agrees.

Learning from other healthcare systems’ successes and even failures helps everyone better protect patients and healthcare workers. We’ve been fortunate that Erica Bane, Pharm.D., BCPS, Medication Safety Officer from Scripps Health, has openly shared Scripps’ experience transforming their hazardous drug management process from relying on an Excel document to a larger, more secure, and more effective program that truly safeguards healthcare workers and in turn, protects patients too.

Webinar Recap - Six Ways to Involve Nurses in Hazardous Drug Safety Planning
Our passion for protecting healthcare workers and patients stems from deeply personal experiences. In 2000, we tragically lost my paternal grandmother to a preventable medical error—a devastating reminder of what's at stake. Meanwhile, my maternal grandmother dedicated 40 years of her life to nursing. This family legacy drives our mission every day: to protect dedicated healthcare professionals like my grandmother Maggie while preventing other families from experiencing the loss we felt with my other grandmother Billie. Our commitment isn't just professional—it's profoundly personal.
