I was just wondering if anyone else has run in to this while delivering to a pharmacy. I had 10 pkgs for the outpatient pharmacy at our local hospital and the stop had a "!" next to it so I knew there would be a note w/instructions for this delivery. There was--when I scanned the first box, a note came up that said "Del to pharmacy". Scanning each of the remaining boxes produced the same note. The problem with this is you have to basically hit the scan button twice for each box--one push of the scan button clears the note and the second push actually scans the package. After I had delivered the pkgs and was getting ready to complete the stop, another note came up: "Did you deliver to pharmacy?" and you had to press Y or N accordingly before you could complete the stop.
I know that there is an emphasis on proper delivery to pharmacies and had just completed the DIAD training on this but I have to say that I think what I went through on this delivery was a bit much.
Has anyone else run in to this yet and, if so, I'd like your opinion(s) on it. Thanks.
