Challenge

Solution

The Ricoh Pharmacy Order Manager Solution was the ideal solution to improve Joseph Brant Hospital’s medication order process.
  • The solution features powerful DocuScripts software, designed to streamline order placement and fulfillment, and eliminate complications for both pharmacy and nursing staff. 

  • Rather than burden staff with two systems, Ricoh combined the entire medication order process into a single workflow. This triggers the relevant workflow that delivers and displays all orders to the pharmacy and prioritizes stat orders without a single phone call or interruption. 

  • The Ricoh team also provided training material which was used to educate staff on the solution.
