From business growth and operational strategy to mergers & acquisitions and regulatory guidance, we provide tailored solutions designed to protect your operations, maximize value, and support long-term success.

Pharmacy set-up & IV Room Design

Veritas provides IV room design support and consulting services throughout all phases of a project, including but not limited to conceptual planning, schematic development, design coordination, detailed configuration, operational workflow evaluation, and implementation support. Design recommendations, spatial configurations, and operational requirements are progressively refined as project conditions, regulatory obligations, owner requirements, and operational objectives evolve. The following phases represent the structured methodology utilized by Veritas to develop IV room environments intended to support regulatory compliance, operational continuity, staff safety, workflow efficiency, and long-term functional sustainability.

Phase 1: Adjacencies & Spatial Relationships

Initial planning activities focus on establishing compliant and operationally appropriate adjacencies among USP <800>, ante, buffer, workspace, and USP <797> designated areas. Spatial relationships are evaluated to support controlled access, contamination mitigation, operational separation, personnel flow, and material movement requirements consistent with applicable regulatory standards and industry best practices. Veritas evaluates and recommends spatial configurations intended to reduce operational risk, minimize cross-contamination exposure, and support efficient pharmacy operations while aligning with applicable USP standards, state board requirements, and project-specific operational criteria.

Phase 2: Pressure Differentials, Airflow Management & Pass-Through Integration

Environmental control strategies are further developed to address required pressure relationships, directional airflow management, air exchange considerations, and pass-through placement and functionality. These design elements are evaluated as critical components necessary to support compliance with USP <797>, USP <800>, applicable mechanical codes, infection control requirements, and institutional operational standards. Veritas provides design coordination recommendations intended to support safe material transfer protocols, environmental segregation, contamination control, and maintainable operational performance within the pharmacy compounding environment.

Phase 3: Workflow Evaluation & Operational Visualization

Workflow assessments are conducted to evaluate the movement of personnel, medications, hazardous and non-hazardous materials, waste streams, and operational information throughout the pharmacy environment. Workflow visualization is utilized to identify potential inefficiencies, congestion points, operational conflicts, unnecessary movement, and communication barriers that may adversely impact safety, compliance, or operational performance. Recommendations are developed to support standardized workflows, reduce avoidable operational risk, improve staff utilization, and promote safe and consistent compounding practices.

Phase 4: Hood Placement & Workstation-Level Configuration

Final design development includes detailed evaluation and coordination of hood placement, workstation configuration, storage allocation, waste handling processes, equipment integration, ergonomic considerations, and operational accessibility. These elements are optimized to support day-to-day compounding activities, workflow continuity, staff productivity, maintainability, and long-term operational functionality. Veritas provides recommendations intended to support compliant implementation, operational efficiency, and sustainable pharmacy performance; however, final responsibility for regulatory approval, construction execution, equipment certification, and operational compliance remains with the owner, architect of record, engineer of record, contractor, and applicable governing authorities.
