CENTRAL PHARMACY SOLUTIONS OmniLinkRx Lost, misplaced and delayed medication orders result in significant rework, unnecessary phone calls, and frustration. The end result is often delayed patient therapy. OmniLinkRx™ is the solution for managing medication orders and other documents by simplifying the communication of orders between patient care areas and the pharmacy. The goal of the OmniLinkRx system is to improve patient safety while increasing the productivity of nursing and pharmacy. How Does It Work? OmniLinkRx runs on a standard server with user access via workstations using Microsoft® Windows® Internet Explorer®. Orders may be sent via analog fax and/or digital sending devices such as a scanner. Nurses simply place the physician order into the sending device and indicate STAT or routine. The scanned document image is sent to the OmniLinkRx server, where it is immediately viewable by pharmacy for order entry. The orders can be viewed remotely, allowing pharmacists to work from home or enabling facilities to provide after-hours order entry coverage for non-24 hour pharmacy departments. The OmniLinkRx system is complementary with computerized physician order entry (CPOE) systems. Streamlined Workflow OmniLinkRx automates communication of medication orders and related information between nursing and pharmacy, improving efficiency and productivity for both departments. Nurses may view the orders sent to pharmacy at any Internetenabled PC and/or at Omnicell® automated dispensing cabinets. ••  urses can view the status of the order to know when to N expect new medications. ••  anual administrative tasks are virtually eliminated, M paperwork burden is dramatically decreased, and time spent on the telephone is significantly reduced.
