What must a pharmacy keep regarding alarm system testing?

• A. Annual summaries
• B. Records or testing readily retrievable
• C. Nothing
• D. Monthly invoices

Answer: (B)

Recordkeeping for alarm system testing. The requirement is to maintain documentation of each test and keep it easily accessible for audits or inspections. Having records that are readily retrievable shows the alarm system is being tested regularly and functioning properly, which is essential for security and regulatory compliance. General annual summaries or monthly invoices don’t capture the specific test events, results, or follow-up actions, and doing nothing would fail to meet the expectation.
