FWIW We use MedAdvisor - Home on iDevices. Accepts photo of printed scrips or escrips sent by doctor via SMS. Allows scripts for two of us. Shows repeats, drug information, reminders and days left etc. I use it with the same pharmac_ every time to make safetynet calc easier.
I just get a text message. It's worked for multiple scripts.
Yes you can use the original sms. The number of repeats left is still going to be correct when the pharmacist checks. Subsequent sms is really for the patient so they know how many is left,
No need - see below.
Yes but the problem in the hospital context where the patient is waiting for a discharge script. The doctor could be on another floor and a E Script walks itself to the patients rather than sending someone to take the script to the patient.
Ah. yes, it was MedAdvisor that my original eScript (SMS) wanted to open up; said something like 'Can't find medAdvisor'. I didn't have it. i said "I don't want another app, I just want my prescription". They must have had people like me before, because she did something on my phone and there it was
try accessing your million CWB shares and see if they are installed.
It’s a nice easy app that I believe even Tasmanian users can operate.
Dunno about Medadvisor but Escript mobile app scripts can be taken anywhere - even the repeat script issued by the most recent pharmacist.
My GP sends an SMS from ausscripts. When you click the link a QR code pops up. The pharmacist scans this for the details.
Don’t know. Maybe read their website to see? I use the one pharmac_. But the escript itself in sms form can be taken anywhere.Ah, OK, in hospital context. No matter to me - last time I was discharged, Saturday 1pm, the hospital pharmac_ had closed.
I just looked and I must have downloaded it before. Just remembered, it looked as though it ties you to the one pharmacist and while I usually go to just one, I didn't want to be tied to them. Or can you go anywhere with an eScript and MedAdvisor?
AFAIK that's how they all work
Toilet = luxury private suite
Let me tell you. Having your own toilet/bathroom in a public hospital IS total luxury. I got shunted out of my private room for a prisoner. The shared bathroom for two wards of 8 mixed people was vomit worthy. I think the look on my face when I opened, then shut the door made the nursing staff guide me to a pristine, 'closed ward' bathroom. Had a shower then the Nurse Angel had changed all my sheets and made the bed. I think I hugged her. Or cried. I can't remember which.
In my locum days I was part of a group in 3 different hospitals that streamlined discharge planning. Worked well apart from the attitudes of some staff specialists/ VMOs.
