Hi Dana,
 
We are using Rubbermaid carts and Metrologic 2D scanners.  The Rubbermaid carts received unanimous support/approval from the nursing staff when we did an on site trial and I have heard nothing negative since we put them into service about a month ago. 
 
Our Pharmacy purchased a new packaging machine from Medical Packaging, Inc for around 10K.
 
As we have a laptop on the Rubbermaid med carts, the nursing staff need to take the cart/laptop to the bedside to be able to scan the med and the patient - regardless of how many medications they are giving.  It kind of destroys the purpose for BMV if they do not scan as many doses as possible.
 
HTH,

We are planning on going live with BMV late this year and are in the process of  obtaining equipment and developing processes. For those who are already live with BMV, what medcarts and barcoding equipment are you using?? Do you use a med dispensing machine?? What process do you use for med passing when it is only 1 med to be given to 1 patient. Do you take the entire med cart and barcoder with you each time or do you use a hand held device. Would you recommend your current equipment?
 
Thanks in advance for all your input
