Medication Administration Handheld Device

Most departments in ProMedica use a full screen application to scan and document medication administration. The application is called AdminRx. In a few areas, a full computer screen cannot be seen from the patient’s bedside. In those areas, a smaller hand held device is used to scan and document medication administration. It is still called AdminRx, but has several differences from the full screen version. These slides will help you understand the basic use of the handheld and some of the differences.

Handheld Scanner Reboot Button

Stylus

Buttons for scanning

Handheld General Information • The hand held has a built in scanner for administration • The term “Tap” means using the stylus to touch the screen (Do NOT use pens/pencils. This will damage the screen) • If the handheld needs a Reboot, use stylus and press red button in upper right corner for 3 seconds. The handheld will start the reboot process.

Handheld General Information • All medications should be confirmed in the Full Screen application. The process is quicker and easier to complete in full screen than the handheld. • If a medication is documented in one application, it will display as documented in the other application (full screen- handheld). • If a medication requires a co-signature, the co-signature must be completed in the Full Screen application. If co-signature is completed in handheld, it will not carry over to full screen application.
