The Patient Profile Interface takes all the inherent capabilities of Stand-Alone
and ADT~Billing and adds a key ingredient, a patient’s Pharmacy-Approved orders.
Take a look at the medDISPENSE screen shot to the left (click on “View Screenshot”
for a larger view); what we see are all of the medications that a pharmacist has
reviewed and approved for this patient. medDISPENSE integrates with any HL-7
compliant pharmacy management software system (this covers 99.8% of all vendors).
Through a Patient Profile Interface medDISPENSE can display information on the
screen for a nurse that is pulled from your facility’s pharmacy management
software. Information such as: all approved medications, drug on drug interactions,
known allergies, and patient history. This helps reduce medication errors.
Moreover, it allows the facility to meet JCAHO regulatory guidelines. Added
features allow a nurse to prioritize the medications he or she wants to pull by
filtering/prioritizing the orders. For example, you can show all orders due at
0800, or you can limit the profile display to only show medications due within
the next hour. For increased flexibility, you can also limit the orders based
on frequency – perhaps only showing the PRN orders. All of these features
combined, contribute to safe and efficient medication dispensing.
The Patient Profile Interface displays important patient information:
• All approved medications • Drug on drug interactions • Known allergies • Times for the drug to be administered • Physician's Name • Dosage • Signature
