Medication Management
Mitigate the risks associated with Medication Management
iCare’s Medication Management System links doctors, pharmacies and people who administer medications into one electronic system reducing your operational risk associated with medication management. With iCare’s Medication Management System you will:
Never have a signature omission – ever
When you use iCare’s Medication Management System signature omissions become a thing of the past. When staff administer medications, via a mobile device, they are prompted to sign on the device only once at the start of the medication round and cannot proceed until this is done.
Significantly reduce medication errors
iCare’s Medication Management System has safe guards in place to reduce the likelihood of an error occurring. A photo of the resident, dosage instructions and any additional notes such as crush the tablet, are provided on the mobile device. Only the medications to be administered for that time period are displayed making it much harder to make a mistake. Staff can immediately see if they have the right dose of the right medication for the right resident.
Complete a medication audit in minutes
With a click of a button you can generate a medication audit in minutes as all the information you require is captured electronically in iCare’s Medication Management System. You can also generate a wide range of reports capturing the key data resulting from a medication round.
Save your GPs having to rewrite a medication chart
Your GPs will never have to rewrite a medication chart when using iCare’s Medication Management System saving them time and removing legibility issues with hand written charts.
Improve pharmacy communication
Communicate with your pharmacy electronically via the messaging functionality in iCare’s Medication Management System. You can alert your pharmacy of a changed medication or a medication order which reduces the time your staff spend phoning and faxing your pharmacist. You are also able to monitor when a message has been read so you know the communication has been received.
