Tameside installs web-based pharmacy system
Tameside General Hospital’s Pharmacy Department has installed
Ascribe’s web-based pharmacy system to manage the dispensary and stores
processes.
Healthcare personnel can now raise requests for prescriptions to the
hospital pharmacy through authorised web-access points, giving
considerable time savings and reducing errors.
This installation is a major step towards further integration with
other clinical systems such as electronic prescribing and medicine
administration (ePMA).
Stephen Critchlow, CEO & Chairman of Ascribe said: “We are delighted
with the initial progress reports, this is a major technological
breakthrough and we are now starting to make real progress in the
web-based integration of clinical systems in healthcare.”
Mr Tony Sivner, Chief Pharmacist at Tameside General Hospital said:
“The solution is up and running and it is allowing us to process our
incoming prescription requests without delays. Now that this system is
in place we look forward to developing further integration with our
other IT systems.”
