Proper Calendar Card storage adds
an additional layer of safety.
• Calendar Cards are
segregated and stored
by time and color, not
by patient.

Two important regulatory points,
before we proceed:
• The Pill Cup is the
“Original Pharmacy
Container”.
• Separating the Pill Cup
from the Calendar Card
is not “Pouring”.

Preparation for a Med-Pass is quick
and easy.
• Separate the next cup
from each Calendar
Card in a color group.
• This group of separated
pill cups is your readyto-go Med-Pass.

assembly, and the requirement
for a Nurse to administer the
meds.

• Shrinks Liability
– No “Pouring” eliminates staff pill
handling and medication decision
making. The “Original Pharmacy
Container” eliminates dangerous
unlabeled secondary containers,
and facilitates the “Supervision of
Self-Administration”.

• Streamlines Distribution
– No “Pouring” enables you to set up
tomorrow’s med-pass today,
eliminating Med-Pass rush-hour.
Separated pill cups, limited to a
single administration time,
eliminates the need for bulky Med
Carts.
