OPENING DRAWERS TO ADMINISTER MEDICATION

Once a Drawer is assigned to a Patient, it can only be opened by scanning the Location barcode – to refill the Drawer – or that
Patient's wristband, when you are ready to administer medication. This ensures medication cannot be accessed or tampered
with between the point when the Drawer is filled and the point where the medication is retrieved. The typical workflow is
explained below.
NOTE: Some aspects of this process are configurable (e.g., user, departmental and user group permissions), so the system
behavior may not be exactly as described here. Consult a Humanscale MedLink
for your specific needs.
