San Diego, CA & CHESHIRE, CT – IntelliDOT™ Corporation, an innovator in patient safety and workflow management solutions for healthcare, and Medacist Solutions Group, LLC today announce a joint marketing agreement. Through this working relationship, the companies will be able to deliver a set of decision support tools to ensure that medications withdrawn from a hospital’s medication cabinet systems are administered to the patient, “closing the loop” on medication distribution in the patient care area.

San Diego-based IntelliDOT develops and installs point-of-care bar code patient safety and documentation systems in hospitals. Cheshire, CT-based Medacist provides hospitals with powerful data analysis and trending tools. Under the new agreement, Medacist will incorporate data from IntelliDOT to produce a report that matches medication withdrawal information from the hospital’s storage cabinet with IntelliDOT’s transaction data, assuring an accurate and safe medication process.

“IntelliDOT is pleased to collaborate with Medacist, as this agreement provides an even more complete solution for healthcare professionals in their patient care initiatives,” said Dave Swenson, R.Ph., Chief Operating Officer of IntelliDOT. “Medacist is highly effective solution and we look forward to a very positive working relationship.”

About the CAREt System™
The CAREt System is the first nurse-centered workflow manager to connect caregivers with the information systems they need at the point of care. Designed to complement the way nurses work, the handheld CAREt System is simple to use and provides nurses with a single, wireless tool for medication safety and documentation at the bedside.

The integrated hardware and software solution provided by IntelliDOT results in a cost-effective “smart hardware” system for hospitals looking for a customized design for caregivers at the bedside. By simply scanning a patient wristband, nurses are prompted by the CAREt handheld tool through all required medication administration and documentation tasks that have accumulated for a patient. Information is clear, organized and delivered right into the caregiver’s hand, right when it’s needed.
