🏠 MHACC IHSS 家護工服務

美國華裔精神健康聯盟MHACC常年關懷IHSS家庭護理工,不少護理工是我們精神病患的護理人員。 由於有关護理工登記註冊,填報工時單,成功登入登出打卡等事項為不少家護工帶來很大的挑戰,聯盟多年来一直提供免費指導便民服務,以下是三月份的IHSS便民服務時間供大家參考.

MHACC has long supported IHSS home care providers, many of whom care for individuals with mental health conditions. Navigating caregiver registration, timesheet submissions, and clocking in and out successfully can be challenging for many providers. To assist, MHACC has been offering free guidance and support services for years. Below are the IHSS assistance service hours for March.

FDA 取消氯氮平 REMS 計劃,提升患者可及性

美國食品藥品監督管理局(FDA)宣布,不再要求醫生、藥房和患者參與氯氮平(clozapine)REMS 計劃,也無需提交 ANC 血檢報告 才能領藥。這項決定來自 2024 年 11 月的專家會議,多數成員認為 REMS 已成為治療障礙。

FDA 仍建議醫生依據處方資訊監測 ANC,但業界普遍認為取消 REMS 將減少行政負擔,提升患者依從性,並改善治療難治型精神分裂症的可及性。

FDA 現正與製藥公司合作,正式移除 REMS 要求,更新處方資訊,確保患者更順利獲得治療。

FDA Ends Clozapine REMS, Expanding Patient Access

The FDA has announced that clozapine prescribers, pharmacies, and patients no longer need to participate in the REMS program or submit ANC blood test results before dispensing. This decision follows a 2024 expert meeting, where most agreed REMS was an obstacle to care.

The FDA still recommends ANC monitoring, but removing REMS is expected to reduce administrative burdens, improve compliance, and expand access to clozapine for treatment-resistant schizophrenia.

The FDA is working with manufacturers to formally eliminate REMS requirements and update prescribing guidelines.
