Long Term Care Pharmacy Services for The Nathaniel Witherell

The Town of Greenwich, Connecticut is seeking a Connecticut-licensed pharmacy to provide comprehensive long-term care pharmacy services for The Nathaniel Witherell Skilled Nursing Facility, a 202-bed non-profit facility. The scope of services includes seven-day-per-week operations with 24/7 pharmacist availability, multiple daily medication deliveries with a three-hour maximum response time for stat medications, monthly medication administration records and physician order processing, quarterly nursing medication pass observations, IV therapy services including PICC line management, and PYXIS machine provision. Proposals are due by 11:00 AM EDT on April 2, 2026, submitted in sealed format to the Town of Greenwich Purchasing Department at 101 Field Point Road, Greenwich, CT 06830. The evaluation committee will assess proposals using weighted criteria: price (25 points), experience and expertise (20 points), proven track record (15 points), market penetration and distribution (15 points), available resources (10 points), competitive advantages (10 points), and organizational compatibility (5 points). Respondents must provide pricing using two structures—per diem cost and cost-plus percentage—along with lists of included and excluded drugs, with fixed pricing for each annual contract term. Required qualifications include proof of Connecticut pharmacy licensure, comprehensive insurance coverage (general liability of $3,000,000, automobile liability of $1,000,000, excess liability of $5,000,000, professional liability of $2,000,000, and workers' compensation per Connecticut statute), completed reply sheets, vendor information forms, and statements of company qualifications.

The contract is structured as a one-year initial term with four optional one-year renewal periods subject to mutual consent, with pricing remaining fixed for each annual term.
