Department Director: Deborah Bentley, Pharm. D. (270) 487-9231 ext. 1150 / 1152 pharmacy at mcmccares dot com Though you may not see us during your visit to the hospital, the MCMC Pharmacy Team is diligently at work to ensure that your visit is a safe and effective one. The pharmacists at MCMC work closely with your doctor and nurses to help maximize your drug treatment. Drug education; drug/drug and drug/disease interaction monitoring; drug-level monitoring; new drug evaluation; pharmacy dosing services; and the procurement, distribution, and control of all pharmaceuticals are some of the services provided by the pharmacy department. How You Can Help One of the things you can do to help in this process is to always be aware of what medications you are taking. This may mean simply carrying a list of medications in your wallet, or actually bringing your prescriptions with you to the hospital. Remember to include herbals and over-the-counter medications. It is also important that you tell your caregiver, physicians, nurses, and pharmacist about any adverse (allergic) reactions you have had to any medication. For additional information, click here.
