Case Study: Sarasota Memorial Hospital enhances sterile compounding compliance with Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions' Simplifi 797

Sarasota Memorial enhance sterile compounding practices, comply with USP 797

Sarasota Memorial Health Care System, a large Florida hospital system, needed a better way to manage sterile compounding compliance across multiple pharmacy locations and meet rigorous USP 797 requirements. With around 30 staff involved in compounding and unannounced state inspections to prepare for, the hospital turned to Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions’ Simplifi 797 to replace manual, paper-based tracking and standardize processes.

Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions implemented Simplifi 797 as a web-based quality management platform with updated policies and procedures, automated documentation, real-time alerts, reporting, and ACPE-approved training. The solution improved access to records, reduced inspection burden, streamlined competency training, and helped Sarasota Memorial maintain compliance and support safer, higher-quality sterile compounding, though the case study does not cite a specific numeric ROI or cost savings.
