With over fifteen years experience, Elder Care Pharmacy specializes in pharmacy needs for nursing centers and is considered an expert in the industry. This creative partnership will not only provide the highest quality of pharmacy care to all Magnolia Manor Nursing Center residents, but will also allow Magnolia Manor to reorganize and consolidate all pharmacy services throughout the organization.

Elder Care Pharmacy is proud to uphold the highest standards of pharmacy care through unique services such as On-site Medication Administration Training, Consulting Pharmacists Review and Emergency Delivery Service delivering medications in emergency situations 24 hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year. In addition, Elder Care values the importance of providing a continuum of care for residents by utilizing innovative techniques and high quality standards.

While this partnership will provide for a dynamic drug delivery system and the most modern, state-of-the-art equipment available, it will also join together two leading providers in the health care industry. Mark R. Todd, President & CEO of Magnolia Manor states, “This partnership will create proficient, cost-effective changes in the current management of our pharmacy systems.” He continues by saying, “As a leader, I am excited about this partnership.
