ForwardSome Hot Topics Concerning Hazardous Drugs (On-demand)
Brought to you in partnership with the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding
This is the on-demand version of the webinar. The live webinar was recorded on November 11th, 2021.
Overview
Despite being available for review for a number of years, confusion and misunderstandings remain concerning USP <800>, especially regarding certain key topics. This presentation will examine two such topics, personal protective equipment and cleaning & disinfection, in a manner that makes the requirements understandable and easy to apply. Material will be organized in an easy-to-understand fashion, making use of tables, charts, and key takeaways. With the official implementation of proposed USP <795> and <797>, as early as a few months away, inspection-ready compliance with USP <800> will be required for all States governed by USP standards, if not already required.

L. Rad Dillon, R.Ph |  |
Rad graduated from the University of Texas College of Pharmacy in 1981, having previously obtained B.A. and M.A. degrees in anthropology at the same university. After short stints in traditional retail, long term care and hospital pharmacy, he settled into a long career in home infusion / specialty pharmacy, working for various regional and national providers. This included periods in direct management roles and support roles. The support roles frequently involved the oversight of sterile compounding facilities, the writing of policies and procedures, and training.
Beginning in 2011 he began obtaining various American Society for Quality (ASQ) certifications, including Certified Quality Manager, Certified Quality Auditor, and Certified Six Sigma Green Belt.
From 2014 until early 2020 he served as a contract surveyor for ACHC / PCAB, traveling coast-to-coast surveying every form of pharmacy this organization accredits, including sterile and nonsterile compounders. During this time he also wrote a policy and procedure manual for compounding pharmacies that is still marketed today.
In early 2020 he converted to full time employment with ACHC / PCAB, and continues with surveying, consulting and writing assignments with this organization.
Rad lives in Loveland, Colorado.
