Reducing errors through the four-eyes principle Drug therapies (medications) for all patients should be ideally prepared during a calm period. This task requires the highest level of concentration and should never take place at a patient’s bedside. Before administering medicines to a patient, drugs prepared in a medication dispenser should be controlled by a second person to aid in reducing medication errors.

Decentralised ward- and satellite pharmacies - cost-efficient, organised and space-saving • Provide...

Improving efficiency When using the Day System for the medication process, the nurses prepare the prescribed drugs – after the doctor’s visits – for the next 24 hours. Preparing for a 7-day period (Week System) significantly optimises operational flows in retirement- and nursing homes. To keep patients in a «normal condition», a long-term therapy with a regular, stabilizing drug therapy is applied. Therefore medications are preferably prepared for a whole week. Professional WIEGAND ® Medication Prepare Stations WIEGAND ® Distribution Tray 8 patients - 24 hours Empirical research illustrates that...
