User Case

Improving Medication and Specimen Collection Efficiency at Prominent Hospital with CipherLab's RS35 Touch Mobile Computers

Established in 1945, the hospital is a medical center-level teaching facility with over 4,000 professionals in Taiwan. It serves military personnel, their families, and the general public, offering over 1,900 hospital beds and managing approximately 6,000 outpatient visits daily. Committed to advancing the medical care environment, the hospital invests in cutting-edge equipment and aligns with strategic development priorities across departments. To improve workflow for unit dose medication delivery and specimen collection for inpatient care, the hospital has decided to upgrade its equipment.

Obstacles in Achieving a Productive Healthcare Workflow
The primary challenge faced by the hospital lies in the congestion at the nursing station handling unit dose dispensing, hindering efficient medication delivery to nursing units. The process involves nurses logging into the hospital system through a PC on a medical cart, a smartphone, or a mobile computer and using a barcode scanner to confirm medication reception by scanning prescription bag barcodes. This sequential process causes delays and inefficiencies, especially when nurses from various stations repeat the same steps for finalizing medication reception.
