“After
only one month of use, BlistAssist has increased our productivity. The system
prepares blister cards more efficiently, verification is much quicker, and I
can rest assured that errors are detected and corrected before the cards leave
the pharmacy,” Suzie Rousseau, Pharmacist and Owner, PROXIM, QC.
BlistAssist
by McKesson improves the production of medication blister cards with a
software-driven solution. The automation ensures accuracy, reduces errors, and
cuts verification time by up to 70%. Three areas why BlistAssist works for
pharmacists and patients include:
Preparation: A
light-guided tray simplifies the manual preparation process, enhancing accuracy
with barcodes and pill images. The software tracks progress and reduces errors,
allowing staff to pick up where they left off after interruptions.
Traceability: The
system captures final preparation images and tracks lot numbers and expiration dates,
offering superior traceability for manually prepared blister cards. The system
identifies each operator through a secure login.
Verification: An
innovative layer-capturing process and pill-by-pill view facilitate quick and
accurate verification. The remote verification feature enhances workflow
flexibility and keeps the preparation area clear.
With McKesson Automation, industry-leading Counting Technology, Blister Card Technology, and Health Monitoring Technology are all at your finger tips, ready to help you operate efficiently, and put the patient first.
