Who must be informed of a pharmacy closure and the transfer of prescription files?

  1. The local police department

  2. The nearest hospital

  3. The registrar

  4. All of the pharmacy's suppliers

The correct answer is: The registrar

Option A is incorrect because the local police department does not need to be informed about the transfer of prescription files. Option B is incorrect because the nearest hospital is not responsible for maintaining prescription files from a pharmacy closure. Option D is incorrect because not all of the pharmacy's suppliers need to be informed of the closure, unless they have requested the prescription files. The registrar refers to the state board of pharmacy, which oversees and regulates all pharmacies in the state. Therefore, they need to be informed of the closure and the transfer of prescription files to ensure proper record keeping and continuity of care for patients.
