Case Study
increasing labor shortages and
higher labor costs, Blanchard sought
to streamline processes through
automation.
But he also wanted to
balance automation with the desire
to continue using nurse servers.
Answers
After an extensive review of various
medication distribution models,
Evergreen chose to automate existing
processes.
"We already were
successful in terms of delivering unitdose medications to the bedside,"
explained Blanchard.
"It became a
matter of streamlining pharmacy
operations so that our staffing is
most efficient.
The ROBOT-Rx®
system is the obvious solution.
" The
ROBOT-Rx system automates
medication storage, dispensing,
returning, restocking, and crediting.
Evergreen began by packaging
medications in bar-coded, unit-dose
form using McKesson equipment.
"Because the packaging looks similar,
we wanted to get nurses accustomed
to using it—to be able to distinguish
what a Protonix dose looks like
versus a digoxin, for instance.
It was
a smooth transition.
