What Types of Automated Medication Dispensers are Available?
There are several types of AMDs, each designed to meet different needs:
Centralized Dispensing Systems: These are large units typically found in hospital pharmacies, designed to dispense medications for multiple patients. Point-of-Care Systems: Smaller units located closer to the patient care areas, such as nursing stations, to facilitate immediate access to medications. Personal Medication Dispensers: Portable devices designed for individual patients, often used in home healthcare settings.
