What must a Pharmacist Manager do within ten days of a pharmacy's closure?

The correct action a Pharmacist Manager must take within ten days of a pharmacy's closure is to return the pharmacy permit and controlled substance registration to the Board. This requirement is crucial for regulatory compliance and ensures that the state is aware of the closure, which helps maintain accurate records regarding pharmacies operating within Massachusetts. By notifying the Board, it prevents potential misuse of the pharmacy's permit and ensures that controlled substances are appropriately accounted for and that any registration is updated to reflect the pharmacy's status.

Notifying patients, disposing of inventory, or reassigning staff, while they may be important tasks, are not specifically mandated actions with a ten-day timeframe upon closure according to the regulatory requirements. The primary focus after a pharmacy closure is ensuring that the appropriate licensing and registration documents are managed properly to uphold pharmacy law and maintain public safety.
