With Sadness

It is with tremendous sadness that Mike Guckenberger, V.P. Pharmacy Healthcare Solutions, lost his battle with cancer yesterday and passed away. Mike was the consummate professional and was always committed to his customers and his AmerisourceBergen colleagues. He will be greatly missed.

ISMP ADC Self Assessment Tool

Through my organization’s relationship with the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), we recently contributed to the development of their new Automated Dispensing Cabinet (ADC) Self-Assessment. The tool can be downloaded at www.ismp.org.

It’s important to look at the role of the ADC in the hospital’s medication distribution system. I encourage everyone to use the tool and assess the use of this technology in everyday workflow.

Great work ISMP!
