Artromick Aligns with McKesson to Enhance Medication Safety at the Patient's Bedside
Date:2/26/2008

Strategic Relationship Combines Leading Mobile Computing Workstations with

Unique Integration Software to Give Nurses More Time with Patients

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Artromick, a leading developer of medication management and healthcare technology solutions for the long-term and acute care markets, today announced an exclusive referral agreement with McKesson Automation, Inc., a division of McKesson, the world's largest healthcare services, automation and information technology company. Artromick is now McKesson's vendor of choice for hospitals that need effective, easy-to- use, point-of-care mobile computing solutions to deliver its CarePoint Connect(TM) software.

Offered exclusively from McKesson, CarePoint Connect fully integrates a hospital's bar-code point-of-care (BPOC) system and Pharmacy Information System (PIS) with the AcuDose-Rx(R) automated dispensing cabinets on a mobile medication cart, right at the patient's bedside.

This unique integration software gives nurses "anywhere/anytime" access to key clinical information; reduces dispensing time at the medication cabinet by quickly identifying the location of each patient's medications; ensures accuracy and saves nurses time on medication administration and clinical documentation, all of which enable more time for direct patient care.

"Hospitals have come to expect high-quality, reliable and innovative products from McKesson Automation, Inc. to help their clinicians provide the best patient care, and Artromick mobile computing solutions will seamlessly fit with those expectations," said Paul Guth, president and COO of Artromick. "We look forward to a long relationship with McKesson and its customers, helping them access, record and manage patient information at the point-of- care, in a patient's room or really, anywhere in the facility."

"This agreement with Artromick demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhance patient safety from the bedside
