Small wholesalers and creative partnerships and resources have been a lifeline in the past: homemade supplies, partnering with others who can produce items we need (face shields, hand sanitizer, 3D printing) The task of balancing is constant: just in time delivery and lean principles vs paying and storing a glut of supplies that may never be used. Entire pharmacy roles exist just to modify formularies and communicating changes to clinical staff is constant. Constant state of reaching out to health system motherships, retain pharmacies, other potential sources. Pharmacy shortages are not new but possibly more prevalent now.
Maintaining relationships with vendors is critical. We appreciate our materials management partners for everything they do to obtain the supplies we need to care for patients. Supply chain for both pharmacy and other materials is incredibly complex.

This is an evolving topic and those still requiring masking continue to discuss and prepare for changing those policies soon. There is quite a bit of variability in policies regarding masking for patients, visitors, clinical and non-clinical staff.
