• Our pharmacy laboratory is set up to prepare parenteral nutrition, sterile injections, and non-sterile extemporaneous preparations. The nutrition team also provides nutritional support and monitoring for patients on enteral and parenteral nutrition. The oncology laboratory at the National University Cancer Institute, Singapore (NCIS) also prepares anti-cancer medications.
  

• As part of our Department's ongoing efforts in ensuring quality patient care, we also implemented a Quality Assurance Programme in our laboratory. This involves the adoption of the Good Manufacturing Practice recommendations in quality assurance and documentation of work processes. At the same time, we are looking into how to make the medication use process safer for patients – through counselling, patient medication profiling, medication reconciliation, as well as educational leaflets on medicines, alternative medicines and health supplements. We endeavour to employ IT to achieve these goals where relevant.
