This dispenser holds up to 28 doses of medication and can dispense from 1 to 4 times per day. If dispensing 1x/day it will hold 28 days of meds, 2x/day will hold 14 days of meds, 3x/day will hold 9 days of meds and 4x/day will hold 7 days of meds. Each dispensing compartment can hold up to 9 M&M size pills. When it is medication time a Low Frequency alarm will sound on and off for 30 minutes (this is adjustable) until the user slides the med door forward to shut it off and expose the current dose of medication. The medication is extracted via a sloped exit ramp so it is easy for users with dexterity issues. The user can leave the med door open or close as it will close just before the next dose. The device runs off of an included rechargeable battery pack and the a/c adapter constantly trickle charges the battery. It is designed to be used with both the battery and a/c adapter plugged in but if there is a power outage or it is unplugged, the dispenser will continue to dispense for up to 72 hours. Medication is under lock and key and only one dose is available at any one time. The device is tamper resistant but a determined user will gain access. This is a non-monitored dispenser and not connected to any network to alert caregivers if a dose of medication is missed; Our other advanced models have monitoring capability. The device is manufactured in Torrance California and proudly made in the USA and is fully serviceable here if needed.
