Abstract

The disclosed system receives a first indication that a first medication is available for delivery to a first location within a healthcare facility, and identifies a preparation status of a second medication. Based on the delivery time and the completion time for the second medication, the system determines whether the first medication should be delivered prior to completing the preparation of the second medication and, when determining that the first medication should not be delivered prior to completing the preparation of the second medication, a notification to wait for the preparation of the second medication before delivering the first medication is sent to a display device associated with a delivery person.
