Tracking and tracing controlled medication is highly important in terms of legal regulations and patient safety. Mandatory rules made by regulating institutions are also highly stringent to ensure that the management of controlled medication is done accurately. NarcSafe supports the safe tracking and tracing of controlled medications through all workflow steps, starting from goods-receipt by the warehouse to the administrationof drugs to the patient.
NarcSafe is stationed within the pharmacy. NarcSafe is integrated into and operates with other STOCKART main stations; therefore, manual recording of transactions is eliminated. NarcSafe provides traceability and control of all transactions while managing controlled medications.
During the receipt of goods, all controlled medication is placed inside the NarcSafe Station with its metal doors. Transactions can also, if so desired, require the presence of a witness. NarcSafe Station can either issue medication directly to a patient or replenish other STOCKART Main Stations.
The STOCKART Main Station can create automatic picklists for controlled medication on NarcSafe Stations. In compliance with the chain of custody, the STOCKART Main Station is automatically notified of the Picklist to be collected from the NarcSafe Station in the pharmacy.
