The new state-of-the-art pharmacy nearly doubles the combined space of the previous Georgetown and Hollywood locations, bringing all staff and services under one roof. Designed specifically for long-term care, the facility features robotic dispensing technology, an in-house IV infusion therapy suite, and dedicated training areas for pharmacy and community staff.

All team members from the previous locations have joined the new headquarters, and additional hiring is expected as the pharmacy continues to grow its presence across assisted living, skilled nursing, behavioral health, and IDD communities throughout South Carolina.
