Emergency Box Management (EBM)
EBM is an Emergency Box Management system for use in Hospital Pharmacy Departments. It allows uses to record and track the location and contents of Emergency Boxes, Anaphylaxis Kits and many more box types. The system is easy to use and takes only a small time to setup and learn. To start using the system you need to create blue prints of each box type. The blue print consists of the drugs and items required in each box type, then multiple instances of each box type can be made according to how many boxes you use. Using the system helps improve your control of the boxes increases the speed of being able to complete batch recalls and finding out of date boxes. EBM was first developed in 2002 and has since gone through 3 versions, which have seen massive changes and improvements to the system. Additionally a kit checker program can be added to this system which systematically checks items in kits by batch number and expiry date.
Although departments may have developed their own systems which are based around spreadsheets or databases, EBM is the first product of its kind on the market that is stand alone and not tied into any specific pharmacy system. The system can be networked to run across multiple PC's or even multiple sites while still delivering outstanding speed and efficiency. Setup takes a matter of hours and once you start using the system the time saving will be almost instantaneous. WJPS provide support for EBM along side full documentation which can be accessed at the push of a button.
