U CAP IT

Use your existing technician credentials to access your Controlled Access Pharmacy to restock your bag after each call. Based on level of clearance you can restock narcotics and other controlled substances as well as standard items.

CAP is a unique solution to today's challenge of controlling your pharmacy access, tracking inventory and dispensing products according to access protocol.

Do you know what your pharmacy inventory is today?

How many people have access to your pharmacy?

If you had an internal shortage problem would you know who accessed the pharmacy?

Are controlled drugs available to techs without the proper level of training?

Can you audit your pharmacy?

Our Solution

UCapIt, in conjunction with the countries premier crib access software company and in collaboration with a working EMS agency has developed a Controlled Access Pharmacy (CAP) product dispenser. The CAP allows EMS professionals the ability to restock their units 24/7. It will verify multiple forms of ID and will prompt for station or dispatch specific data. All withdrawals are cataloged and regulated by professional clearance/training level. Aggregated dispensing history, alerts for low stock position, expiring product and pick lists for restocking are all available online via your secure login. This information can be printed or exported for your use with other software systems

This has always been around, albeit by a different name.

We always just call it "the guy on light duty." The guy with the bad back or the chick who is 8 months pregnant drives around and dispenses this stuff to the units that need it. Has always worked fine for us. And you have a useful place to put light duty people who you are already paying anyhow.

If you are a big enough agency to need something like this, you have people on light duty or otherwise assigned to take care of this. If you are a smaller agency, you simply don't need it and/or can't afford it.

This whole machine thing just fills a need that doesn't even exist.

Wow! A pyxis for EMS. I agree, it is much cheaper to have that "bad back" EMT to re-stock or hey do it yourself!

Oh come on Dust I think of a use for this.

It's a great way for Fire chiefs to blow some of that hard earned tax payers money in their over inflated budgets, you know the money that should be spent on Police or potholes. :wink:

Peace,

Charge the county a re-stocking fee to put those narcotics back on your shelf for future display.

btw, when there's no more drug in the bottle, what garbage can do you throw it in, so it doesnt end up in the wrong hands? Because I've heard people saying the interesting things you can find in the garbabge, even if it's empty, DONT MATTER.

[AZCEP]

Sorry, but both items you mention are garbage.

The CAP issues have been well covered already.

The IOM is a fix for a problem that has already been managed. This device has no operational benefit to anyone. If you are allowed to use this device, you could use the King LT, or the LMA.

Put a bell or whistle on something, or move the current one to a different place, and see how many people decide they have to have one. :roll:
