The LTC Innovation Blog

Long-term care pharmacies operate in a high-pressure environment where every decision impacts patient safety, financial performance, and operational efficiency. “How are we doing today?” It’s the question every LTC pharmacy leader asks, but too often the answer depends on an analyst running a report, a manager updating a spreadsheet, or an end-of-month summary that’s already out of date. Traditional reporting tools, like static spreadsheets, monthly summaries, and disconnected systems can’t keep up with the pace of modern healthcare.

SoftWriters has officially launched Alpha Labs, a dedicated cross-functional innovation team charged with charting the optimal path to unlock the full potential of AI and automation across our product suite.

Why are long term care (LTC) pharmacies under so much pressure today? Staffing shortages, rising prescription volumes, and shrinking margins are straining LTC pharmacies like never before. Every day brings more prescriptions, tighter budgets, and fewer hands to manage it all.

Walk into any long-term care pharmacy today, and you'll feel the pressure immediately. Staffing is leaner, costs are higher, and the demand for accuracy and speed has never been greater. It's no surprise that pharmacy leaders and IT teams are looking for creative ways to stretch resources further.

Theresa (Terry) Dean, Director of Product Operations and Execution at SoftWriters, is no stranger to pushing boundaries in the tech world. Her recent participation in the Generative AI Pioneer Program is a testament to her commitment to innovation, learning, and collaboration. This program, spearheaded by GenAI.works, allowed Dean to test and shape a new AI platform while contributing to the global AI community.

As a long-term care pharmacy operator, you understand the complexities of medication management, regulatory compliance, and providing high-quality patient care. In today's data-driven world, leveraging the power of business intelligence and artificial intelligence in pharmacy can be a game-changer, but its success hinges on one critical factor: data.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the talk of the town—and for very good reason. From automating routine tasks to providing data insights, AI is permeating our world. This transformation is sweeping across healthcare and pharmacy too, enhancing patient care, improving efficiency, and reducing costs across the board.

This strategic meeting will gather some of the top minds on AI within LTC Pharmacy. SoftWriters is proud to announce its first-ever AI Mastermind Cohort in Pittsburgh from May 21 to May 23, 2024. This exclusive event will bring together a select group of LTC pharmacy executives at the forefront of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into their day-to-day operations.
