From the Pharmacy to the patient’s bedside, McKesson Automation’s medication distribution products are designed chiefly to enhance efficiencies and improve patient safety. AcuDose-Rx®, a family of medication dispensing cabinets, automates the secure storage and rapid dispensing of narcotics and other medications in all patient care units, specialty care areas, outpatient clinics, and the operating room. AcuDose-Rx puts nurses in complete control of all critical aspects when accessing patient medications – safety, security, accountability, availability, and charge capture – and features the most advanced integration and highest multi-dose line-item capacity available.
Using Connect-RN™ software, AcuDose-Rx integrates medication dispensing cabinets, bar-code medication administration and the pharmacy information system, enabling real-time medication administration, dispensing, inventory and communication. Connect-RN strengthens medication safety processes and saves nurses considerable time. Clinical safety features help nurses eliminate medication errors and comply with Joint Commission regulations, while communicating vital information to the pharmacy.
In addition, AcuDose-Rx is the only cabinet that integrates with the CarePoint Connect™ bedside point-of-care solution. CarePoint Connect™ is the first software application designed to enhance nursing medication dispensing workflow and nursing/pharmacy communication. CarePoint Connect brings integration and additional capability to a mobile point-of-care implementation, providing the patient- and medication-safety intelligence of AcuDose-Rx at the patient’s bedside. Selecting cabinet medications remotely reduces the wasted waiting time at the dispensing cabinet and enables nurses to spend more time providing patient care.
