What really sold us on it was how we could save on pharmacists’ time and save on checking. After lots of shopping around, we decided to go with the BlistAssist. […] We couldn’t see ourselves going back now. The pharmacists’ time saving is unbelievable. [...] There is much less room for error.

Since installing BlistAssist, we’ve experienced a drastic reduction in the time required to produce and verify blister cards. The software provides security by guiding users through each step of the process, ensuring that cards are filled quickly and, more importantly, correctly.

Since we have acquired the VBM, we were able to save a drastic amount of time in both filling and checking blister cards. This time savings, coupled with the accuracy of the machine, allows us to use our time elsewhere. With the ability to digitally review packs, our patients are less at risk of a medication error, which leaves me with peace of mind.

The VBM has dramatically increased the productivity of my pharmacy. It used to take us 6 days to prepare and check our blister cards and now we are able to produce everything in only 3 days. […] The machine fits easily in my small dispensary, […]. I was pleased with the quick and simple installation and the intuitive software was easy to learn.

Pouches for each administration date/time and reminders for non-oral solids

I loved the efficiencies that came with my original PACMED, but the enhanced features of my new PACMED NS have taken it a step further. We have been able to reduce over 30% of our STS trays with the new universal canisters by automating our top partial tablets. The one-sided design means we can operate efficiently in a smaller workspace.

The universal canisters capability in the new PACMED NS, for partial and special tablets, is a substantial time saving for us; we were able to cut down 50% of the STS trays. The new PACMED holds more canisters with higher capacity. The eight towers are independent of each other, allowing refills while the machine is running.

Canister refill for inventory management

Counting and filling for time savings

Since CountAssist is only accessed from the front and needs minimal space, I was able to install two cabinets in my pharmacy. It’s simple to use, so it got my staff comfortable with automation. Now our counts are more accurate and our efficiency has improved thanks to the system’s reliability.

Pharmacy is changing. Nowadays, pharmacists must focus more on cognitive services. […] [CountAssist] allows us to increase our productivity in the pharmacy. […] I love the CountAssist because it has a small footprint. Since our dispensary does not have a lot of room, it is a perfect fit for our pharmacy.

What Pharmacists Are Saying After only one month of use, BlistAssist has increased our productivity. Blister cards are prepared more efficiently, verification is much quicker, and I can rest assured that errors are detected and corrected before the cards leave the pharmacy. Suzie Rousseau Pharmacist & Owner Proxim Suzie Rousseau, QC

We pride ourselves on providing the best patient care possible. A big part of that is PACMED strip packaging – a value-added service that makes it easy for patients to take the right medication at the right time. Our pharmacy continues to flourish and we’re optimistic about the future of our business. Karim Merani Pharmacist & Owner Greenbank Huntclub IDA Compounding Pharmacy, ON

The VBM has dramatically increased the productivity of my pharmacy and my team. It used to take us 6 days to prepare and check our blister cards and now we are able to produce everything in only 3 days. The VBM’s accurate preparation and verification allowed me to have peace of mind and the necessary time to focus on my patients and improve customer service. The machine fits easily in my small dispensary, not to mention that it’s virtually silent when in operation. I was pleased with the quick and simple installation and the intuitive software was easy to learn. Tereza Michel Pharmacist & Owner Proxim Tereza Michel, Laval, QC

PACMED allowed us to take a process that used to require two people and turn it into one person managing a high volume of packs a day. It was a complete game changer. Srivardhan S. Arumugasamy Pharmacist & Owner Supercare Pharmacy, ON

In a busy pharmacy, speed and accuracy are vital. Using PACVision helps our dispensary run more smoothly without compromising patient safety. Chris Barkhouse Pharmacist & General Manager Guardian Bouctouche, NB
