Specialty Disease Therapy Management

Navigating disease management on your own can be stressful, overwhelming, and frustrating. With the V-Care Team by your side, it doesn’t have to be!

An Individualized Approach

We manage your prescriptions and treatment options to encourage an active and healthy lifestyle. With our Patient Management Program, we review things such as your:
  • Medication
  • Dosages
  • Frequency
  • Interactions
  • Side effects
  • Physical assessments
  • Coordination of care with your physician when appropriate

There are many potential health benefits of this program, including the managing of your side effects, improved overall health, increased disease and medication education and awareness, and increased medication compliance. If coordination of care with your physician is necessary, your pharmacist will have all the information needed to help make informed decisions regarding what is best for you as the patient.

We offer disease therapy management to the following disease states:

Proper medication management is fundamental to the successful treatment of many patients with serious mental illness. Long-acting antipsychotic medications are of vital importance to the quality of life in many patients as the risk for noncompliance is decreased. Our dedicated and caring staff works with patients and their physicians to reduce non-compliance through these long-acting medications as well as through monitoring medications and refill reminders. We strive to make it as easy as possible for patients to remain healthy so that they can enjoy fulfilling and active lives.

These medications, along with other treatments, support from families, friends, or caring medical professionals and others, can help patients to participate in their own recovery journey.
