TRUTECH CONSTRUCTION partners with engineers, architects and equipment providers to provide hospitals or healthcare facilities with renovations to existing facilities or new construction. 

 

The USP pharmaceutical compounding requirements outlined in <USP 795> Pharmaceutical Compounding – Nonsterile Preparations, <USP 797> for Sterile Preparations, and <USP 800> Hazardous Drugs—Handling in Healthcare Settings have been revised.  Revisions to all three USP chapters are anticipated to become effective nationally December 2019.  

​

The new guidelines set specific requirements for engineering and environmental quality and control at all hospital facilities.

​

The first step for any compounding pharmacy attempting to undertake the new requirements in <USP 795>,  <USP 797> or <USP 800> is a complete extensive review of the existing facility.  This can be best achieved by putting together a design team comprised of pharmacy stakeholders, select pharmacy staff, architect, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineers,  security, maintenance, commissioning agents and the general contractor.

​

Once the review is completed an execution plan to resolve any gaps should be prepared outlining all timelines for renovation completion, budgets and operational impact.  A clear Basis of Design (BOD) should be created for the project so design and engineering deliverables and specifications are clearly defined.
