http://www.e-MonitoringServices.Com  Medready has been the leader of Automated Medication Dispensers for over 10 years. Medready s medication dispenser combines technology and service to resolve a major problem in today's society, Non-Adherence to Medication Regimens. It is estimated that 50% of prescriptions dispensed annually are not taken correctly and that 30% of all hospital admissions for people over the age of 65 are directly attributable to medication non-compliance. We at MedReady partnered with a large medical group to field-test our device for 8 months before we finalized the design and features of the MedReady Medication Dispenser. We enlarged our tray to hold more medication, made the tray removable, and most importantly, we added a rechargeable battery pack to safeguard against power outages. This also means Medready can be used on short trips, eliminating the confusion of a suitcase filled with different pill containers. For those who have difficulty hearing a buzzer or alarm, we developed the Medready 1600FL, a unit with a red Flashing red Light to alert the patient that it is time to take their medication. We have also developed the Medready 1600LF which emits a low frequency alarm to aid those who have difficulty hearing higher frequencies. These FL and LF options can also be combined to create a 1600FL-LF (FL-Flashing Light - LF Low Frequency) model. MedReady combines the best technology and service to resolve the dosing issues and costs associated with Non-Adherence to Medication Regimens. For caregivers who want a daily report on their patients compliance, we developed the Medready 1650. This unit sends a daily report, via the internet, accessible by the caregiver. This is also available as a Medready 1650FL (Flashing red Light), Medready 1650LF (Low Frequency), or a combination Medready 1650FL-LF (FL-Flashing Light - LF Low Frequency)
