A booklet published by APhA and the American Society of Hospital Pharmacists and American Nursing Home Association, "Pharmaceutical Services in the Nursing Home" has been revised extensively and is now available. A single copy may be obtained free of charge from the three sponsoring organizations or Roche Laboratories, the financial sponsor of the booklet.

The booklet also emphasizes that the extent and degree of pharmaceutical services should be similar no matter if a pharmacy is located in the nursing home or if the pharmacy services are provided by a community pharmacist or hospital pharmacist.
