Flo Healthcare Introduces New Medication Workstation
Flo 2700
combines sleek design with highly configurable storage options
(ATLANTA – December 5, 2006) Flo Healthcare Solutions,
LLC, a leading designer of state-of-the-art wireless mobile workstations,
wireless infrastructure and
related services for the healthcare industry, today announced that it has
expanded its 2000 series of medication workstations with the
addition of the Flo 2700.
The Flo 2700 is designed for accurate and efficient dispensing
of medication at the point of care. Its sleek, lightweight design
allows it to fit neatly
in tight spaces. The Flo 2700 is small enough to take right to the patient
bedside,
yet spacious enough to accommodate a highly configurable storage system.
Flo 2700’s system of drawers and bins with customizable locking
options offers a versatile solution that brings medication administration
full circle: from
initial fill to the bedside.
"From the pharmacy to the bedside and back again, the Flo 2700 sets the
standard in premium integration, options and ease-of-use, offering the smartest
combination of reliability, value, mobility and wireless capability," said
Keith Washington, Flo Healthcare vice president and general manager.
Enabling a direct link between the pharmacy and clinician, the Flo 2700
is designed to minimize the opportunity for error while maximizing the
efficiency of the
medication administration process. Access to patient information allows for
real-time management of medication and more streamlined workflows. In
addition, access
to real-time patient information, medication administration and bar code
scanners allow clinicians to do their job more efficiently while reducing
the opportunity
for error.
IT departments like the Flo 2700 because it features an open architecture
with easy access to technology equipment and multiple peripheral interfaces.
And,
the Flo 2700 arrives fully assembled – simply roll it out of the box,
charge the battery, and put it to work.
Pharmacists like the Flo 2700 because it is part of the Starsys medication
storage and transport system from Emerson Storage Solutions InterMetro
division. The
Flo 2700 will be officially launched at the American Society of Health-System
Pharmacists 41st Midyear Clinical Meeting December 3-7, 2006 in Anaheim,
Calif. Product demonstrations will be available in Flo Healthcare’s
booth number 2715.
