Tracit360 Tracking Pharmacy Medication
Having greater control of drugs as they leave the pharmacy is crucial and being able to accurately establish their location within the distribution chain allows pharmacy departments to offer an increased level of reliability.
Barcode labels on medication bottles, vials, and packaging hold key details like the medication name, strength, serial number, and expiration date. Scanning the barcode during prescription filling ensures accurate medication and dosage dispensing.
Here are some ways Tracit360 enhances pharmacy operations:
Supply chain tracking - Barcodes encoded with GS1 standards (GTINs) can be scanned to track medications directly to the patient. This traceability using Tracit360 can help identify when and where a product was produced, shipped, and received.
Inventory management - Tracit360 solutions help with inventory management from dispatch to disposal. While also ensuring stock is kept in high quantities to avoid running out.
Medication preparation and dispensing - Our Tracit360 solution ensures a reduction of medication errors. By scanning the barcode on the medication, pharmacists can ensure that the correct medication and dosage are being dispensed to patients.
Patient identification - Each patient's barcode can contain vital information about the patient and their medication. Tracit360's dashboard helps ensure that the right drug is given to the right patient under the correct circumstances, even during deliveries to patient's homes
Staff Resources - Tracit360 tracks pharmacy assets throughout the hospital with a full audit trail decreases the chance of medicine being misplaced or lost. This creates a more effective workflow and can ensure patients are discharged when required and hospital resources are steadily available.
