MEDICATION PACKAGING SOLUTIONS

Blister packs, also known as bingo cards or bubble packs, are the most commonly used medication packaging in long-term care facilities. Each blister offers one dose of a medication and each card comes in a 30 or 60 count card depending on dosage frequency. On the top of each medication card, a resident’s information and prescription instructions are printed along with a barcode for Med-Pass scanning.

This medication packaging type helps staff keep track of which medication has been dispensed to the resident.

Strip packaging, also known as PASS (Patient Adherence Strip System), takes a resident’s medications and sorts them into individual packages based on time, date, and dose. This packaging type can accommodate both single and multi-dose medication regiments. Strip packaging also accommodates 2D barcode scanning to help prevent any medication administration errors. Each package includes all of the required information about the person and the medication dosage.

This medication packaging type helps simplify and organize medication for both your caregiving staff and your resident making the whole process safer and faster.
