Quality Care Pharmacy fills prescriptions and carries a range of over-the-counter healthcare products, including diabetic supplies such as test strips, lancets and glucometers, cough and cold medications, headache and pain medications, allergy medications, heartburn medications, deodorants, lotions and moisturizers, vitamins and herbal supplements, and first aid supplies. Next day special ordering is available for items that are out of stock or not normally carried. Free home prescription delivery is offered to customers who qualify, generally within a 5-mile radius of the store.

The pharmacy also provides specialty compounding services. Its Pharmacy Manager, Clem Boncal, RPh, describes compounding as preparing a medication from scratch to accommodate a patient's specific, personalized needs. With a physician's prescription, the pharmacists can change the form of a medicine, create a preparation that is preservative or dye free, adjust the dosage of a medication, and add flavor to make medicine more palatable. Quality Care Pharmacy is also a pet pharmacy, compounding creams, eye drops and pills for animals.

The pharmacy sits on Sprint Drive, about 0.3 miles from both the Pennsylvania State Police station and UPMC Pinnacle Carlisle hospital, and roughly 0.6 miles from the DMV. Walnut Bottom Road is about 0.7 miles away, Western Village RV Park about 0.8 miles, and Allen Road about a mile away.

Its compounding work and its standing as a locally owned pharmacy have made it a repeated choice in Cumberland County, where patients from Carlisle and the surrounding communities bring both their own prescriptions and their pets' prescriptions to be customized.
