pharmacy and nursing including the following:

Omnicell Savvy Mobile Medication System (MMS): The new Omnicell Savvy MMS
is a key component in building a comprehensive medication management solution
from the central pharmacy to the point-of-care. Savvy integrates Omnicell's
automated dispensing cabinets with the secure mobile medication system to
safely transport medications to the bedside.

The unique Savvy MMS provides efficient workflow support, saving nurses'
time and minimizing the risk of interruptions to enhance patient safety. This
same mobile solution can be used for accessing the hospital's electronic
medical record and eMAR among other hospital applications. Savvy features an
advanced set of hardware such as patient-specific locking drawers with
guiding light technology to increase medication safety and delivery at the
point-of-care.

Anywhere RN: This web-based application allows nurses to review and
select medication orders remotely from virtually any hospital workstation,
including the Savvy mobile medication system. Using Anywhere RN, nurses are
able to select profiled medications to issue from an Omnicell automated
dispensing cabinet. Omnicell cabinets offer flexible systems that help ensure
patient safety by enabling healthcare professionals to reduce medication
errors, monitor and control medication.

WorkflowRx 7.1 Central Pharmacy Automation Software: WorkflowRx 7.1
introduces integrated software for both carousel and unit dose packagers to
increase efficiency and accuracy in the inpatient pharmacy. WorkflowRx
assists in optimizing hospital inventory levels by allowing a reduction of
inventory on hand by up to 50 percent and assisting clinicians in reducing
medication dispensing errors by up to 72 percent. WorkflowRx with Omnicell's
carousel was the 2010 KLAS Category Leader in the Pharmacy Automation,
Medication Carousels category.
