Right Dose Pharmacy, a long-term care pharmacy in Iowa and member of Guardian Pharmacy Services, one of the nation’s leading long-term care pharmacy services companies, has opened its new 17,000-square-foot headquarters in Ankeny. The expanded facility marks a milestone in the pharmacy’s growth and strengthens its ability to serve residents in assisted living, skilled nursing and behavioral health communities as well as individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Since opening in 2017, Right Dose Pharmacy’s Ankeny location has experienced significant growth, increasing the number of residents served by more than 165%. Staffing across all Right Dose Iowa locations, including Ankeny, Cedar Rapids and Storm Lake, has grown by more than 500% with additional hiring planned in 2026. “As we’ve grown, it became clear we needed a space that could keep pace with our team, our technology and the level of care our partners rely on. This facility allows us to work more efficiently today while positioning us to better serve our communities for years to come,” Rockford Anderson, president of Right Dose Pharmacy, said in a prepared statement. The new facility features a modern, flexible layout with expanded square footage and dedicated quiet areas that support staff productivity and workflow efficiency. In addition to supporting staff, the headquarters strengthens Right Dose’s longstanding role as a preceptor site for sixth-year Pharm.D. candidates from Drake University’s College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. Right Dose Pharmacy is part of Guardian Pharmacy Services, with more than 53 pharmacies serving 38 states.
