Ensuring Everything is Right Times 5 and More. 
Omnicell's SafetyMed™ is a software solution that helps
ensure safety and increases efficiency in the medication administration process.
Through a
variety of features and integration with Omnicell's top-rated OmniRx®
medication dispensing cabinets and the OmniCenter® server, SafetyMed
ensures
the five rights and more:
- The right patient is ensured via SafetyMed scanning of the
patient
wristband bar code, verifying
and documenting patient identity.
- The right drug is ensured since the bar code scan clearly
identifies the
correct medication
ordered for the patient. If no bar code is available, the nurse is
able to
verify correct administration
by checking the real-time order details within SafetyMed.
- The right dose is ensured as SafetyMed provides dosage information
showing
date/time,
dose, comments, and the ID of the nurse administering the
medications.
- The right route in ensured as SafetyMed enables clear
identification of
the medication
ordered for the patient and requires that the route be part of the
medication order, whether
profiled or via override.
- The right time is ensured as SafetyMed provides warnings of
overdue and
early administration
of medications, enabling appropriate clinical follow-up.
