What is not a required standard of practice in long term care homes according to the text?

  1. Ensuring pharmacy hours meet the community needs on a 24 hour basis

  2. Educating residents about their drug therapy

  3. Allowing all staff to perform extemporaneous compounding

  4. Promoting the safe and effective use of medication

The correct answer is: Allowing all staff to perform extemporaneous compounding

Extemporaneous compounding is not a required standard of practice in long term care homes according to the text. This is because this practice involves creating medications on an individual basis, which requires specialized training and is not typically necessary in this setting. Allowing staff to perform this type of compounding can pose a risk to patient safety and is not recommended in the long term care setting. The other options listed - ensuring pharmacy hours meet community needs, educating residents about their drug therapy, and promoting safe and effective use of medication - are all important and necessary standards in long term care homes.
