Clinical Research Services combines over 50 years of professional pharmaceutical consulting services with the highest quality of personal attention to ensure residents receive the safest and most effective care available. We are a team of professionals that serve a wide variety of health care facilities.
We are a team of pharmacists and nurses providing consulting for long term care facilities, assisted living facilities, residential homes, LTAC units, dialysis centers, subacute and transitional care facilities. The CRS team is comprised of consultants who are Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacists accredited by the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, Certified Consultant Pharmacists by NJCCP, and have received training in Antibiotic Stewardship by the Society of Infectious Disease Pharmacists.
Our preventative efforts represent significant savings to the health care facilities we serve; hospitalizations are averted, and medication administration time is decreased. CRS professionals conduct medication regimen reviews to assess the resident’s clinical therapies. Our comprehensive review assesses medication effect in the management of resident disease states. Dosage, renal status, medication allergies, concomitant disease states, and laboratory results are evaluated to ensure the desired outcome is achieved and adverse effects are prevented. We attend QAPI, antibiotic stewardship meetings, infection control meetings, and psychoactive utilization reviews.
At CRS we understand the critical nature of good relationships with physicians, psychiatrists, nurses, dietitians, and residents. We believe good communication fosters trust, which enables the professional and the resident to implement important recommendations with confidence. We specialize in working closely with other disciplines and related medical professionals to provide a comprehensive review of patient drug therapies, medication storage, and administration, conduct ongoing educational programs for nursing staff, and assure that facilities strictly comply with federal, state, and JCAHO regulations.
