What Sets Us Apart
Pharmaceutical Packaging Options
Pharmacy medication strips organize a patient’s medications by the dose, day, and time. Also known as strip or pouch packaging, this service helps patients with complex medication regimens improve adherence and gives nursing and treatment facilities greater efficiency.
For Caregivers
Convenience and portability: Strips are small and easy to carry, allowing caregivers to tear off only the doses needed for administration without needing to sort measure from bulky pill bottles.
Enhanced adherence: Strip packaging clearly labels each pouch with the medication, dose, date, and time, which provides a simple visual cue that a dose has been taken.
Reduced errors: The system groups all pills needed for a specific time into a single, easy-to-open pouch. This eliminates the guesswork of sorting multiple pills and helps prevent medication errors.
Improved health outcomes: By simplifying adherence, strip packaging helps ensure patients receive the full benefit of their medication, which is particularly important for managing serious conditions.
For Healthcare Facilities
Increased efficiency and accuracy: Strip packaging ensures administration of medications more quickly and accurately than manual methods, reducing human error and freeing up facility staff for patient care.
Reduced labor costs: The strip packaging cuts down on manual labor hours spent sorting and dosing prescriptions and allows care facilities to increase their time allotted to patient needs.
Waste reduction: Medication strips create less waste than traditional methods, particularly when prescriptions change, as only the affected strips need to be updated.
Increased patient safety: Barcode technology and automated inspection systems at the Pharmacy further minimize the risk of medication errors, a crucial benefit for patients in long-term care facilities.
Short cycle ATP strip packaging (4/3- or 7-day cycle) are available.
Multi dose, heat sealed blister packaging is also available as a more traditional option.
All packaging options are prepared under supervision of registered Pharmacists, in accordance with state and federal regulations.
