Mobile Medication workstation integrates a secure medication inven- tory management system with the systems and technologies required throughout the patient care and medication administration processes (EMR, BCMA, etc.),” said Rob Sobie, Vice President, Healthcare Solutions. “This creates a unifi ed, patient-centric solution that is easily transported to where it’s needed most: the bedside. Integrating a secure medication management storage solution onto a workstation safeguards the last 100 feet of the medication administration process.”


Smart storage solutions


When it comes to keeping needed items for carts and workstations neatly stored, organized and readily accessible, David Schneider, Marketing Manager, Hänel Storage Systems, says poor use and management of space — especially when already limited — can be ineffi cient and expensive. “The immediate effect of this lack of space is disorganization. Crowded storage areas and processing space leads to shelves that are stacked to capacity, often with less than ideal aisle space, and every available inch of fl oor space utilized with carts. This

makes items not only hard to fi nd, but hard to access and susceptible to damage,” said Schneider. As a result, he said hospital staff often use stepladders to reach high shelves, manually shift heavy moveable shelves to access case cart items, and rely on written inventory pages taped to the shelves. Moving supplies offsite also comes with its own set of problems. “Multiple, spread out, or offsite storage locations can lengthen the required turn-around time on surgical supplies, from sterile trays to soft goods, which can lead to over-stocking, rush orders, and overall frustration,” said Schneider.


The Hänel Rotomat Vertical Carousel provides a high-density storage solution that saves valuable fl oor space and facilitates easy, on-the- spot cart building and maneuvering. “The Rotomat Vertical Carousel combines storage, inventory management, safety and security into one complete system, making it utterly unique in the healthcare market,” Schneider asserted. Based on a “goods to the user” principal, he says the single-access, ergonomic unit eliminates the need to walk through rows of shelves searching for and carrying products. Instead, the requested items are brought to the user by entering an item number or descrip- tion, or by scanning a barcode. “This improves speed and accuracy and inventory levels are kept up-to-date in real-time,” said Schneider. “When a healthcare facility knows exactly what it has available in inventory and what the status of the item is, they avoid over stocking, shorten case pick times and decrease rush orders to correct mistakes in the Operating Room, Emergency Department or Labor & Delivery. This means increased effi ciency and accuracy with reduced complaints from staff.” Rousseau Métal Inc. also provides storage solu- tions that are designed to improve workspaces in healthcare facilities. “Our products will be espe- cially useful in maintenance departments as our toolboxes will allow staff to work in a safe, effi cient environment,” said Rousseau’s Direct Marketing Agent Julie St.-Pierre. “Our products are unique in the mar- ket as they are rec- ognized for their quality, durability and style.
