Guardian Pharmacy LLC, one of the nation’s largest long-term care pharmacy companies, added Boomer Solutions in Eufaula, Oklahoma to its pharmacy family. The addition of Boomer Solutions expands Guardian’s footprint into Oklahoma and marks the pharmacy’s fourth partnership in 12 months.
 
Opened in 2011, Boomer Solutions will serve more than 2,000 patients in long-term care communities, skilled nursing and assisted living facilities across Oklahoma by year's end. Co-presidents Kyle Simmons and Tanner Corsini will continue to own and operate the pharmacy in partnership with Guardian.
 
“Guardian’s reputation for exceptional customer care was extremely important to us when selecting a partner to help build our business,” said Simmons. “My family has been in the long-term care business for four generations, so I recognize the importance of being a true partner to the communities we serve.”
 
Corsini added, “With this partnership, we can focus more time on providing customers with creative solutions and expert service while benefitting from the financial, technical and administrative support offered through Guardian’s corporate team.”
 
Corsini and Simmons both received their Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of Oklahoma. Corsini is responsible for the pharmacy’s day-to-day operations, while Simmons focuses on sales and account management.  
 
“Expanding into Oklahoma has always been a priority for Guardian, but in order to be successful we knew we needed partners with a proven track record of excellent service and a passion for the industry,” said Kendall Forbes, executive vice president of sales and operations at Guardian Pharmacy. “That is exactly what we found with Kyle and Tanner.”
