Axitare gives more vitality

Medication only works when it’s actually taken—and it must be taken at the right time and in the correct dose. Axitare’s automatic medicine dispenser provides peace of mind for home care clients, their families, and home care staff alike.

Guides, dispenses and notifies

The Axitare automatic medicine dispenser is designed to support elderly people living independently at home. It enhances safety for those living at home and reduces the need for time-specific medication visits for the home care workers. In the best case, visits solely for medication administration can be eliminated, allowing that time to be redirected to other aspects of care work.

Axitare medicine dispenser with remote care

The Axitare medicine dispenser and dispensing service support safe medication management and independent living at home. With integrated video calling, the dispenser is suitable for a wide range of clients, including those who need extra support with their medication. During a video call or remote visit, the nurse can check in with the client and assess their wellbeing.

Medicine dispensing follows the same process as independent medication intake. The nurse releases the prescribed dose, which is dispensed in a familiar, easy-to-use medicine cup. Thanks to a rotatable and zoomable camera, the nurse can observe the situation clearly and accurately. The integration of remote care into the medicine dispenser was developed in response to requests from home care professionals. A large screen helps bring the nurse closer to the client.

Benefits of the Axitare automatic medicine dispenser

Ease of use

The medicine cup is an easy and reliable way to take medication. This means the Axitare medicine dispenser is applicable for a wide range of clients. According to our research, 2/3 (~ 500) of home care clients’ family members would prefer medication to be dispensed in cups rather than sachet packaging.

Safe medication management

The automatic medicine dispenser ensures that each dose is taken correctly, considering both the dose and the timing. Based on data from the Axitare remote care system, we see that approximately 99% of doses are taken on time. (Based on Axitare remote care system data)

Remote features reduce home care visits

The medicine dispenser serves as a secure storage unit for medicines. Nurses can also dispense as-needed medications remotely, such as pain relief. Medication courses can be managed in the same system as well, ensuring that temporary medications are delivered just as safely and reliably as regular prescriptions.

Supervised medication intake and remote care

When using a medicine dispenser with an integrated video call system, medication can be administered under remote supervision. A remote care visit can be conducted simultaneously, and the client’s functional capacity and wellbeing can be assessed. The rotatable and zoomable camera helps the nurse get a comprehensive overview and closely monitor medication intake. The large screen enables clear visibility to the client.

Quick setup

The Axitare medicine dispenser can be deployed immediately for new home care clients. It can be filled with medications either from dose sachets or pharmacy packaging, or both. This allows existing, already-paid-for medications to be utilized and benefiting from the dispenser starts right away.

Significant cost savings for wellbeing services counties

Medication-related home care visits can be significantly reduced when the medicine dispenser is in use. At the same time, care staff can focus on tasks that require their physical presence. In addition to reducing the number of home care visits, it is also possible to reduce their time constraints, which makes shift scheduling and resource allocation more flexible. In the best-case scenario, the use of technology also increases employee satisfaction.

A holistic service model — not just an automatic pill dispenser

The automatic medicine dispenser is part of our holistic service, which also includes an online remote care system and our customer support. We offer the devices to home care providers on a rental model, whereby we take responsibility for device maintenance and provide user support seven days a week throughout the year.

Supervised video-assisted medication administration

The service also offers a supervised remote medication administration feature. It can be used when you want to ensure via a video connection that the client takes their medication. In this case, a video call unit is installed on the device.

Nurses can then monitor the client’s medication intake from their own workstation and provide necessary guidance and support.

The reminding medicine dispenser leaves nothing unclear

Managing polypharmacy and keeping up with medication schedules can be challenging. Our meidicine dispenser removes the complexity and burden from medication management.

The device provides medication at exactly the right time and exactly in the right dose, based on the information entered into our remote care system.

The dispenser reminds the client to take their medication with voice prompts every three minutes for a preset period if the medication is not taken. If the medication is still not taken, the device stores the dose and sends a notification to the nurse and, if configured, to a family member. Upon receiving the alert, the nurse checks the client’s situation and can, based on professional judgement, dispense the medication remotely for the client.

A clear interface for managing medicine dispensing

The Axitare medicine dispenser is managed through its interface, the remote care system. The remote care system is connected to the meidicine dispenser wirelessly and used over a browser-based UI.

In addition to home care nurses, family members may also have access to the remote care system. The remote care system contains all the necessary medication and usage information. Medication management, including medication changes to the doses, is controlled there.

The remote care system is conveniently accessible to nurses on a smartphone or mobile device.
