2 Medication Management Manual Process Pharmacy Controlled Substance cupboard 5% of medications Ward-stock 5%-40% of Medications Medication Trolley 3-days Supply Doctor s Prescription Nurse obtain medication medication administration

3 Typical Nursing Units workflow and issues Central Pharmacy Controlled Drugs Management in Wards Ward Stock of Nursing Units 5% - 40% of med orders 3-days Supply upon request from Wards 50% - 75% of Med orders Challenges faced by Pharmacy and Nursing 1. Frequent Stock-outs Reduced quality of patient care 2. Frequent Calls/Faxes to Central Pharmacy for urgent top-up Disruption of work 3. Loss of charge capture 4. Inventory discrepancies 5. Increased workload of Nurses/Pharmacists charge capture and reconciliation on top of patient care 6. Traceability Omnicell, Inc.

5 Existing Inpatient Automation Solutions Centralised Medication Distribution Model Decentralised Medication Distribution Model Hybrid Medication Distribution Model Point-of-Care Medication Distribution Model

6 Centralised Medication Distribution Robotic repackaging machines in the Central Pharmacy Supply Multi-Dose Patient-Specific Medications to Nursing Units Advantages Picking of Medications done by Pharmacy Decreases Nursing workload Centralised Inventory Control Disadvantages Cannot handle ICUs, Operating Theatres etc Unable to handle DDs and special drugs Pharmacy workload increases tremendously Unable to cope with high-turnaround of medication orders

7 Decentralised Medication Distribution Automated Dispensing Cabinets at Nursing Units 70% - 80% of Medications kept in specific Nursing Units Advantages Pharmacy Workload decreases tremendously Nursing workload decreases in inventory management Medications are readily available to patient Pharmacy can remotely monitor inventory levels Can handle all Nursing Units including ICUs and OTs Disadvantages Medication picking done by Nursing Slight increase in inventory initially Pharmacy is not automated
