In this episode, we focus on practical CVPM exam and operations drills for controlled substances logs and inventory turns, delivering actionable steps you can apply immediately rather than interview discussions like those on PAWSitive. Learn how to build compliant daily logs that capture every drug movement with date, patient ID, quantity, and initials, then assign end-of-day reconciliation to catch mismatches early. Discover inventory turn calculations using cost of goods sold divided by average on-hand value, spotting slow movers to cut order sizes and reduce expired stock. These methods overlap to minimize duplicate orders and regulatory risks while fitting busy hospital shifts.
Key takeaways:
- Set up logs with point-of-use entries and weekly 15-minute reviews to stay audit-ready.
- Calculate turns quarterly, halve slow-item orders, and monitor 30-day improvements.
- Test one change at a time starting with logs, then apply to categories like vaccines.
