Long-Term Care Pharmacy Logistics
Purpose-built routing for complex facility cycles, daily scheduled runs, and rigorous return coordination.
Mastering Multi-Facility Complexity
Long-Term Care (LTC) pharmacy logistics present unique challenges that standard delivery services cannot accommodate. From synchronizing large cycle fills to handling ad-hoc emergency runs, GLMT provides the infrastructure necessary to support intensive daily operations.
Core LTC Capabilities
- Shared Master Orders: Coordinate multiple facility drop-offs under one master order and route, with delivery records for each destination and a single delivery invoice.
- Per-Stop Delivery Evidence: Each facility drop-off has its own delivery evidence. A multi-location order brings those records together in one combined proof-of-delivery document.
- Prescription-Specific Return Coordination: A structured workflow for managing medication returns from facilities back to the pharmacy, maintaining the chain of custody in both directions.
- Cycle vs. Daily Runs: Plan daily medication runs and cycle-fill schedules separately, with pickup windows, facility requirements, and expected volumes agreed during onboarding.
Documented Delivery Accountability
Recorded pickup and delivery events create a custody history. Through the dedicated client portal, pharmacy managers can review delivery status and proof of delivery without relying solely on phone updates.
Photo-Based Proof of Delivery
Every delivery stop has its own location-specific photo evidence and recorded delivery event. For multi-destination orders, those records are brought together in one combined proof-of-delivery document.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can one LTC pharmacy route include several facilities?
Discuss the facility list and receiving arrangements with dispatch before scheduling. The order workflow supports multiple destinations with delivery evidence recorded for individual stops; route acceptance depends on the agreed plan.
What should an LTC pharmacy confirm before a pickup?
Confirm package readiness, receiving contacts, handling instructions and the process for a refused delivery or return. Keep patient and prescription information out of the public inquiry form.
What are your LTC pharmacy pickup hours?
We operate 24/7, including weekends and holidays, with STAT available at any hour. Call dispatch to confirm the pickup window and receiving arrangements for your pharmacy run.
