Participating in the ASHP Summer Meeting from afar #ashpsm10

By Jerry Fahrni on June 5, 2010

The inability to physically be in Tampa, FL shouldn’t stop someone from participating in the ASHP Summer Meeting. Technology doesn’t care that I’m 2700 miles away or that I’m sitting in my home in my bunny slippers with Diet Pepsi in hand. With a webcam and speaker phone I was able to join a user […]

Update on AutoPharm software only pilot

By Jerry Fahrni on June 2, 2010

Cool Technology for Pharmacy

By Jerry Fahrni on March 25, 2010

While this item isn’t specifically designed for pharmacy, it is one cool piece of hardware; the POS-X PC117. The all-in-one workstation is on the list of hardware I received from Talyst as part of a new system that Kaweah Delta will be beta testing in the coming months. So, I wandered over to the Talyst […]

Boring, but helpful. Integrating Siemens Pharmacy to Maximize the Pharmacist Role – This was the […]

My first session today was an update on various future enhancements to both the Siemens Pharmacy System and their barcode medication administration system (BCMA), fondly referred to as MAK. The future […]
