  • Central Pharmacy Automation As a Service
    Central Pharmacy Automation as a Service A New Path Forward Executive Summary 3 Contents 1 2 Challenges of the Central Pharmacy 4 3 Goal of the Autonomous Pharmacy 5 4 Challenges to Adopting Pharmacy Automation 6 5 Technology with Service Delivers Best Outcomes 8 6 Conclusion 9 Citations 10 1 Executive The healthcare industry is undergoing a Summary monumental shift. The introduction of automation into hospital pharmacy workflows is transforming care, freeing up time for pharmacists to engage in more clinical initiatives that improve patient outcomes. The journey towards a zero-error central pharmacy reduces medication error and waste, but many pharmacies are still putting off the adoption of autonomous solutions. To overcome this reluctance, technology needs to be easy to adopt, flexible enough to adapt to the increasing complexities of the central pharmacy, and more directly establish new standards of care. Automation on its own is not enough. Hospitals and health systems must leverage new turnkey operational service models to optimize and maximize the benefit of automation technology. Leveraging new technologies within the as-a-service model will help unlock the human potential that leads to superior patient care and safety. 3 The central pharmacy is the hub of care that patients and providers depend on in any hospital facility. To keep it running smoothly, how- ever, there is a seemingly insurmountable number of challenges 2 that need to be overcome daily, stemming from a lack of inventory visibility into inventory and supply. Challenges of the The traditional solution to these challenges has been to increase Central Pharmacy administrative functions.

  • Factors to Consider for the Implementation of Automated Pharmacy Distribution Systems in Hospitals and Health Services
    Factors to consider for the implementation of Automated Pharmacy Distribution Systems in Hospitals and Health Services HOSPITAL PHARMACY PRACTICE UPDATE SHPA Dispensing and Distribution Leadership Committee Introduction Several Australian hospitals are implementing a range of automated pharmacy distribution systems to gain safety and efficiency benefits in the preparation, distribution and supply of medicines for inpatients and on discharge.Automated pharmacy distribution systems are pivotal in the movement towards closed loop medication management systems.1 In Australia, the use of in-pharmacy robotics and automated dispensing cabinets are most commonly considered when evaluating the use of automated technology. However, the implementation of optimal automated pharmacy systems will be dependent on the circumstances and service requirements of each individual hospital pharmacy department. The aim of this practice update is to share the learning that has been gained through the implementation of automated technology across some Australian Hospital Pharmacy Departments. The lessons learned from the implementation experience may help to guide decision making for other Australian hospitals looking to implement automated pharmacy distribution systems. Background Automated pharmacy solutions comprise of various individual pieces of technology which can automate a variety of steps in the process of preparation, distribution and supply of medications. These can include but are not limited to: 1. In-pharmacy robotics In the Australian context, original pack dispensing robots are most commonly used in the hospital setting. Original pack dispensing robots are located within pharmacies and “…automate the storing and picking of products and some the labelling stage of the dispensing process and require the supply of original packs to support effective use…” 1 2.

High-volume drugs, such as fluids and topical formulations, electronic MAR and Rodriguez-Gonzalez CG et al, are stored in the nursing floor stock. The hospital’s CPOE system has to be checked regularly for new or 2015[8] modified medication orders. Any changes required a new MAR to be printed, as this document is used to retrieve medication from the ADC (2012). The pharmacy service consists of continuous online centralized order validation, except for the night shift (2015). Cottney A, 2014[2] ADCs are locking cabinets that control access to medication. Nurses can gain access to the cabinet by using a No EP or BC technology password, or by scanning their fingerprint. A touchscreen is then used to select the required patient from a list, and then to select the medication needed for administration. When the medication is selected, the cabinet unlocks to allow access only to the location in which that particular medication is stored, and guides the nurse to that location so that they can remove the required dose. Fanning L et al., 2016[29] ADCs are medication storage and dispensing units that are computer controlled.

  • A Study of the Accuracy of the Instymeds Automated Prescription Dispensing System
    A STUDY OF THE ACCURACY OF THE INSTYMEDS AUTOMATED PRESCRIPTION DISPENSING SYSTEM ELIZABETH A. FLYNN, PHD, RPH The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the accuracy of prescriptions dispensed from the InstyMeds Automated Prescription Dispensing device, pursuant to a prescriber-entered electronic order; and (2) to compare the accuracy of InstyMeds products to that of prescriptions dispensed from typical outpatient and community pharmacies involving pharmacist-inspection of filled prescriptions prior to dispensing to a patient. The undersigned was the principal investigator (PI) for this study. I am experienced in dispensing accuracy studies (see References and my attached curriculum vitae), and I was awarded the APhA Wiederholt Prize for Outstanding Research in 2010 for a study for which I was primary author, entitled “Dispensing errors and counseling quality in 100 pharmacies” (2009). I am a registered pharmacist, and I currently practice in a community pharmacy on a part-time basis in addition to conducting research. I have first-hand experience with assessing the accuracy of prescriptions in typical pharmacy systems. Background The results of a national study of dispensing accuracy found that 50 community pharmacies in six states had an overall accuracy rate of 98.3% on a sample of 4,481 filled prescriptions. Errors were detected using direct observation and inspection of filled prescriptions to optimize validity of the results. Most of the 77 errors involved the label: 52% were wrong instruction errors and other incorrect label information was contained on 14% of the errors. Wrong drug errors occurred on 8% and wrong strength errors occurred on 10% of the 77 incorrect prescriptions.
