It is not difficult to find that many supermarkets and fresh stores have already replaced electronic shelf labels. Electronic shelf labels are not only used in retail, they are also used in hospital pharmacies for different types of drugs.
Recently, Yunli Wuli smart medical electronic tag system was put into use in inpatient pharmacy of Jinzhou Hospital in Liaoning Province. With the introduction of smart drug cards, the management efficiency of hospital pharmacies has been greatly improved.
"In the past, it took a long time to find drugs, and it was easy to send the wrong drugs, and it was not easy to save some injections, refrigerated drugs or other drugs with special storage requirements." Now we can get a prescription and dispense the medicine in one minute, so patients don't have to wait in long lines to get the medicine, and the time is much shorter than before, which saves us time." Liaoning Jinzhou hospital pharmacy pharmacist said.
