Omnicell, Inc.
Safe, Cost-effective, Decentralized Medication Dispensing
Why Pharmacy and Nursing Prefer Omnicell ADCs
MedSelect® Flex™ from AmerisourceBergen Technology Group (ABTG) is designed to help busy clinicians achieve higher performance, greater reliability, and enhanced patient outcomes. MedSelect Flex is designed to help you meet demanding medication administration needs. The system provides true unit dose dispensing with the Unit Dose Module for controlled substances, eliminating count-remaining after each dispense or shift and preserving valuable time for patient care. Single-item access drawers help to increase patient safety and reduce errors. The cabinets are customizable, modular and secure – ideal for pharmacy, nursing and other decentralized locations. The system is also linked to a centralized database network that tracks up to 5 years cabinet inventory, usage by patient, usage by provider, and other critical data so you can evaluate usage trends. With the ability to integrate all cabinets, software and report writing systems, MedSelect Flex enables healthcare providers to manage medications and supplies in a safer, more efficient and cost-effective manner.
Omnicell® automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs) are the clinician-preferred choice due to their ease of use and technological innovations that improve workflow and medication safety. These features include an integrated Medication Label Printer for printing patient-specific labels on medications that won’t be immediately administered, and the OmniDispenser™ single-dose dispensing module, which virtually eliminates the need for tedious narcotics countbacks. Since 1992, more than 2,600 acute care customers worldwide have relied on Omnicell’s medication automation, supply chain and analytics solutions to increase operational efficiency, reduce errors, and improve patient safety. Omnicell non-acute care solutions include its MTS Medication Technologies brand, which provides innovative medication adherence packaging solutions that can reduce costly hospital readmissions.

Omnicell® Automated Medication and Supply System
Investment Protection
Long-term care providers can greatly benefit from Omnicell® automated medication and supply management systems for secure access to first dose, emergency medication and new medication orders. These systems not only aid in regulatory compliance, but also increase the quality of care for residents. Omnicell automated medication and supply cabinet systems enable timely access to needed medications at the point of care. Instead of managing multiple e-kits, authorized caregivers can access most medications from the Omnicell automated medication cabinet, which easily stores 200 to 300 different items — or more — depending on the configuration. Implementing Omnicell automated medication cabinets helps a pharmacy grow and retain business, decrease operational costs by eliminating e-kits and stat deliveries, automatically capture charges with an automated billing interface, and improve the chain of custody of medications for regulatory compliance.
ScriptPro develops, provides and supports state-of-the-art, robotics-based pharmacy management, workflow and telepharmacy systems. The CRS, SP 50, SP 100, and SP 200 robots, SP Central Workflow System, and SP Central Pharmacy Management System automate your pharmacy from point of entry to point of sale, providing a unified platform.

The SynMed® System offers pharmacies an accurate and effective solution for drug dispensing and verification tasks – especially those that serve skilled nursing, assisted-living and correctional facilities, and customers requiring multiple medications. Free the professionals at your pharmacy from the tedious task of manual preparation, and help them dedicate more time to customer service.

The Autotrans is available in two designs – Shuttle and Conveyor and can package traditional pill cards, Unit Dose and OP-Series cards. The Shuttle is a manual-shuttle filler/sealer that can package up to 350 standard cards per hour. The high-speed Autotrans Conveyor peaks at 600 cards per hour, and is the only unit on the market that also applies the pre-pack label vs. doing so in a separate post-production step.

Bar Coding and Unit Dose Systems
For Sellers and Buyers
Accu-Chart™ has been in the unit dose drug distribution systems for 30 years and in the Unit dose/Barcode Systems business for 20 years. Twenty years ago the founder, Tim Cloninger, was involved in the development of the first unit dose packaging equipment with barcode printing capability. He also developed some of the original barcode unit dose filling and dispensing systems more than 15 years ago. This concept evolved to the point today that hospitals are finally starting to use barcodes for medication error prevention. The products available and sold worldwide by Accu-chart™ include the New Vantage Series machines - Cadet®, Cadet Twin®, Cadet Twin 2x2®, and the Punch Cadet® - for solid unit dose/barcode packaging equipment; the Wet Cadet® liquid unit dose/barcode packaging equipment; the AccuPack SX™ and AccuPack RX™ large item unit dose/barcode packaging equipment; various barcode label printers including the top seller AccuPrint-600™; and the Artromick medication carts, emergency carts, and anesthesia carts. Accu-Chart™ believes in pursuing continuous improvements and simple innovative solutions to prevent medication errors in all pharmacy settings for the long term care, acute care, corrections and the international pharmacy market place. Please contact Accu-Chart™ for an onsite meeting when you are making plans for a unit dose or barcode packaging system.
Prudential Consulting Broker Services specializes in netting you the highest possible walk away price for your pharmacy. I will protect your interests throughout the selling process. There are a lot of unlicensed “Brokers” and “Consultants” who want to sell your pharmacy for a lower than premium price to earn a quick commission. There are also wholesalers and buying groups that want one of their customers to buy your store so they do not lose the account. Who looks out for you? I DO! My fiduciary duty is only to you. I will take all potential buyers through a proprietary process to net you the best deal. Do not trust the sale of your pharmacy to someone that lacks my experience or does not have your best interests as their top priority. All transactions are handled in strict confidence. I have owned multiple pharmacies and I know that complete confidentiality is critical. Before you discuss selling with anybody, please give me a call. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the potential sale of your pharmacy.

But our Pharmacies offer customers so much more, like flu shots, immunizations, and health screenings. The Community Retail Pharmacist has become a vital part of the healthcare system. As prescription therapies continue to evolve, so does the potential for Pharmacists in a retail setting to impact the patient's overall well being. H-E-B operates Pharmacies throughout Texas at its H-E-B store locations where we employ hundreds of Pharmacists. Within H-E-B Pharmacies, we offer non-traditional career paths in disease state management, central fulfillment, call center, and immunization programs. Pharmacists at H-E-B lead the charge in creating a team environment that's responsive and exceeds our patients' expectations through the delivery of excellent, accurate, and efficient service-all while meeting or exceeding our corporate Pharmacy business objectives and strategies.

The Omnicell® Savvy™ mobile medication workstation is far more than an ordinary hospital medication cart. Savvy is a wireless, medical-grade mobile workstation interfaced with the Omnicell medication dispensing system. With Savvy, nurses can remotely select patient medications, shortening time they spend at the automated dispensing cabinet. Because its individually locking drawers can be assigned to specific patients, Savvy streamlines the medication administration process by enabling nurses to safely retrieve medications for multiple patients from a single trip to the cabinet. Since 1992, more than 2,600 acute care customers worldwide have relied on Omnicell’s medication automation, supply chain and analytics solutions to increase operational efficiency, reduce errors, and improve patient safety. Omnicell non-acute care solutions include its MTS Medication Technologies brand, which provides innovative medication adherence packaging solutions that can reduce costly hospital readmissions.

MedRover™
Metro® Medication Cart Solutions
Inspired Medication Storage and Delivery System
The new Metro® SecureRx™ MD System improves clinician workflow, medication security and visibility to support closing the loop between pharmacy and the patient bedside. Available exclusively on the Metro Flo Series of hybrid medication workstations, the SecureRx MD System communicates seamlessly with Metro MedDispense® Automated Dispensing Systems as well as other leading automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs) to improve the tracking, control and delivery of patient specific medications to the bedside. The Metro® Flo 1770Rx workstation with Metro SecureRx™ Med Module combines access to real-time information with secure and accurate point-of-care medication delivery. The highly mobile 1770Rx features a secure locking system, which allows nurses to access patient's medications in separate bins to efficiently deliver multiple medications. These benefits allow caregivers to spend more time where it matters most – at the patient’s bedside. Metro Lionville® medication carts utilize the Lionville cassette exchange system and provide a wide assortment of drawer configurations and an extensive range of accessories that can be customized to meet the current and future storage and medication management requirements of any nursing unit.
MedRover™ is the first all-inclusive medication delivery system. Inspired by the occurrence of medication errors at the bedside, we developed a system that combines security with portability at the point of care. MedRover allows pharmacists to securely store patient-specific and floor stock medications in a mobile unit on the patient floors. Triple-lock security provides cabinet-level security in a mobile device – safe enough for sensitive items such as narcotics. MedRover allows nurses to assess patients, dispense and administer medications, and electronically chart-all at the bedside, reducing the opportunity for medication and record keeping errors. System software provides audited control of medication from the pharmacy to the patient bedside, reducing diversion.

Established in 1970, Anton/Bauer MPS is the leader in the design, manufacturing, and testing of mobile power systems for use with mobile workstations (COWs/WOWs), med-dispense carts and other portable devices such as wireless vital signs monitors. With more than 40 years of experience, the company has gained an unrivaled understanding of battery system technology and power management. The Anton/Bauer MPS HotSwap™ power system allows for ease of mobility and 100% uptime. With HotSwap, your device is never plugged-in to charge. Anton/Bauer’s WPA (Workstation Power Anywhere) power system is a hybrid system that combines HotSwap features with elements of a cart-mounted power system. The WPA can be plugged into a wall to charge, or the battery can be “swapped” for a fully charged one. With this flexibility, the WPA can be tailored to your specific mobile power needs. Anton/Bauer MPS takes a consultative approach, collaborating closely with the world’s top battery cell manufacturers to provide the highest quality and most reliable power systems available, anywhere. When you choose Anton/Bauer MPS, your workflow requirements and budget/performance goals can be met.

Stinger Medical Bedside Medication Dispensing Workstation Stinger Medical knows that closing the gap to deliver medications from the med machine to the patient bedside is critical for a safe and secure med administration model. Our mobile carts bring structure and reliability to the med administration process. Accessories, such as barcode scanner mounts, keep the tools your nurses use handy and ready for use. We offer multiple drawer configurations to meet your specific patient needs. Stinger carts can also be used for CPOE. Since most physicians prefer to write orders outside the patient room, having a CPOE cart available and ready for use is a welcomed tool. Each Stinger medication cart comes equipped with Mobius Power® Swappable Battery system and CAST®. Mobius Power ensures that med admin is never interrupted due to a dead battery on the cart. CAST, our mobile fleet management system, reduces trouble tickets and provides service techs with proactive measures that keep mobile carts up and running on the floors.

Health Engineering Systems Unguator Advanced Mixing Technology Revolutionizing the compounding environment has been the main focus of the Unguator technology. Our aim is to facilitate the quality preparation of formulations developed in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, veterinary, and other similar settings. Utilizing this system allows for compounds to be prepared in a fraction of the time and cost associated with other conventional methods. The Unguator EMP offers an advanced mixing technology in a closed system that optimizes your formulation mixes. This consistent mix is achieved when preparing a variety of formulations including ointments, creams, gels, suspensions, emulsions, and other similar compounds. The Unguator product assortment also consists of a unique set of mixing jars. These jars are easily distinguished by their patented piston principle push up bottoms. This bottom forms a closed environment, eliminating air intakes and germ contamination, two factors that are commonly associated with manual preparation. These jars serve as multi-functional tools to measure, mix, store, and dispense your compounded formulations. The standard mixing blades used with the Unguator technology are designed to "sweep" the inner wall of the jar during the mix to maximize particle size reduction and the breakup of globules in your preparation.

Lipoderm® Transdermals from PCCA
FDA Consulting, Group, LLC
Differentiate Your Practice with the Only Transdermal Proven to Deliver Four Drugs At Once Maximize your competitive advantage with the Lipoderm family of transdermals. Proven to consistently outperform the competition, patients can potentially reduce common side effects of some drugs by using the transdermal route, which also may improve patient compliance, due to better “palatability.” Four formulations are available to better match your patients’ needs: Lipoderm is a hypoallergenic, elegant alternative to traditional PLO gels that contains a proprietary component that increases the permeation of a variety of actives. Lipoderm ActiveMax™ improves the active ingredient-carrying capacity of Lipoderm, allowing pharmacists to use higher percentages of single active ingredients to reduce the amount of cream needed by patients. Anhydrous Lipoderm is designed for use with actives that are unstable in water. Lipoderm HMW™ (High Molecular Weight) has been proven to deliver drugs with high molecular weights through the skin. For more information about the most studied transdermal in the industry, visit: www.pccarx.com/lipoderm

Customizable pop-up warnings, preset regimens, and automatic documentation save time and reduce errors. Chemocato controls compounding of IV drugs via bar coding and an electronic scale connected to the computer. Each step during compounding is automatically documented and fully traceable. The accumulated data can be used for detailed reports on usage, safety, and costs.

Automatically and accurately split tablets with the BullsEye® Tablet Splitter. This revolutionary machine can precisely split up to 16 pills per minute, reducing the need to manually split medications. Manual splitting is inaccurate and in many circumstances can ruin a medication by crumbling it. The BullsEye uses a single blade spinning at 10,000 rpm and canisters that are calibrated for each specific medication to be split in half. The process is simple: scan the canister barcode or medication bottle, and enter the quantity to be split. A recent research study found that when elderly patients split their own pills, the doses deviated 9-37% from what was intended. The BullsEye Tablet Splitter is supported by data that shows 99% accuracy, with a deviation from the intended dose of less than 5%, the average being significantly lower. Some advantages of the BullsEye Tablet Splitter: hands-free splitting, accurately splits tablets to fulfill prescriptions of half strength, lowers inventory by reducing the quantity of strengths of medications you need in your formulary, saves money by splitting larger comparably priced tablets into two equal half tablets, and splits tablets for patients who have trouble swallowing larger tablets, which helps to increase patient adherence.

Reaching Out with Telepharmacy
Remote Pharmacy Staffing (RPS) is a licensed pharmacy dedicated to provide cost effective high quality Pharmaceutical services to hospitals. Our after hours pharmacy service enhances medication safety and helps hospitals to meet JCAHO standards. For many hospitals, providing around the clock pharmacy service and complying with JCAHO standards has become a big challenge. This problem is compounded by the skyrocketing cost of recruiting and maintaining qualified Pharmacists. Using modern communications tools, RPS provides a team of dedicated Pharmacists for medication order review and processing. This satisfies JCAHO standards of having each medication order reviewed by a pharmacist prior to nurse administration. RPS allows your hospital to maintain a high level of Pharmacy service 24 hours a day. Our service also increases the productivity of your in-coming morning pharmacy staff. Your staff will begin the day with current work, not the previous nights work. Thus, your pharmacy staff will be able to devote more time to perform other critical duties.
ScriptPro provides software and hardware to allow pharmacies to conduct high-quality, safe, and efficient Telepharmacy operations at remote locations. The support pharmacist can provide pharmaceutical care for patients while maintaining accountability and control over all prescriptions dispensed at the remote pharmacy.
