  • SUMMARY OF POSITION

Pharmacists in this area are responsible for both adult and pediatric patients and their expertise is leveraged during the most critical moments of patient care, including adult and pediatric trauma resuscitations, stroke alerts, and cardiac arrests. In addition, they are the go-to resource for complex medication dosing, toxicology, and antimicrobial stewardship in the ED. Pharmacists in the ED participate in resuscitation efforts by preparing and delivering medications quickly and accurately, providing on-the-spot recommendations for drug selection, dosing, administration, and monitoring for patient of all ages. Support transitions of care, ensuring accurate medication reconciliation on admission and discharge.
