As for the effect of use? The front-line pharmacist revealed that in the past, Mr. Rong of Kaohsiung wrote a lot of prescriptions, and could process hundreds of prescriptions in an hour, so he had to race against time. Now, when getting medicine, you have to scan a QR code, and it may take some time to get used to it in the beginning. For nursing staff, repeated manual inspections were required in the past. Now, through RFID recording and checking, the pressure of nursing staff to worry about dispensing the wrong medicine is reduced.

When Advantech was designing this set of closed-loop medication management, Li Jiayin, senior business manager of Advantech Smart Healthcare, took Advantech colleagues to Kaohsiung Rongzong for an on-site inspection. They watched how the medicine truck was delivered to the nursing station and how the nursing staff distributed medicine. Understand the process, "When cooperating with hospitals, you will need to put aside your role as an information vendor and stand on the front line to understand the problems encountered by medical staff."

For example, the "mobile smart medicine cart" used by nurses has 16 medicine boxes in total. Due to the high nurse-to-patient ratio (referring to the average number of patients taken care of by each nurse) in Taiwan, one nurse needs to take care of 7 to 8 patients. Some patients take a lot of medicine and may need 1 to 2 medicine boxes. Therefore, Advantech helps to modify the size of the boxes to better meet clinical needs, so that nurses only need to push a mobile smart medicine cart to meet the needs of the patients they care for. patient needs.
