Medication carts can be made more efficient by offering the right type of accessories.  Most medication carts offer a waste container and a place to store supplies.  These meet some of the basic needs of care givers.  It is important that these containers offer you enough space for whatever may present itself on your normal rounds. 

Other carts may offer a pocket shelf for added workspace, a laptop arm to hold a computer and a sharps container storage unit.  Additional convenience storage space is always welcomed on medication carts.  This is usually found in an accessory cabinet.

Do you have enough space on your medication carts?  Some carts come with a choice of 9 or 10 levels.  The Prestige DLmedication cart offers the ultimate in space for all of your med pass needs.  It has 10 levels and additional storage drawers down the side of the cart.  One of these drawers is actually a locked narcotics storage drawer, which frees up space in the bottom supply drawer of the cart. 

The Prestige DL medication cart also offers an option of a sharps/glove cabinet with additional storage, or a full storage cabinet.  There is a pocket shelf for extra workspace and you can choose to add a computer arm for your technology needs.  There is a large waste container and a supply container as well.

The Prestige DL medication cart can hold patient bins or punch cards depending on your selection of bin or supply drawers.  It is available in either a sandstone or cherry wood finish and can be purchased from Rx Care Assurance.

Medication carts are an integral part of quality resident care.  Medication carts allow the care giver to bring needed medications and necessary supplies to the point of care.  This can save valuable time by having everything with you and not having to go back to a central station to retrieve something that may have been needed but was forgotten.

Medication carts are not only used to store medication. They may also serve as storage for blood pressure cuffs, thermometers, and other needed supplies. Having a cart that is easy to maneuver, organized and locked, helps prevent medication errors and wasted time.

A quality medication cart should have a secure locking system including a lock with a removable/replaceable core.  Wheels should offer some assistance with directional control and there should be at least one wheel brake to keep the cart stationary.

Useful accessories are also an important part of the medication pass and should not be overlooked.  Do the accessories include a spacious supply and waste container, as well as the ability to include a sharps/glove cabinet and some additional storage for liquids and or powdered meds?   Does the medication cart have an additional shelf or drop leaf for extra workspace if needed? 

The Prestige Medication Cart from Rx Care Assurance answers all of these questions.  In addition to having a State of the Art look and feel, they offer a quality locking system, useful accessories including a sharps/glove cabinet, track wheels and a pocket shelf for added workspace.  For all these reasons, the Prestige Medication Cart is a great solution for your medication pass needs.
