We provide inpatient pharmacy services at each of our three hospitals. As a result, we can meet the needs of our patients during their stay. We match patients with their correct medication using bar code scanning technology. This enhances patient safety. In addition, we have automated dispensing cabinets integrated with our medical information system for drug distribution to our patients. Our electronic medical information system uses technology that supports our prescribers and pharmacists in checking for allergies, drug interactions, and contraindications when entering prescription orders.
