Custom Bubble Packs
Bubble packs can simplify a complicated medication regimen. Individuals who have trouble remembering to take their medicine, or caregivers who want to assist them, will benefit from organizing pills in bubble packs. Morning pills are packed together in one "bubble" as are noon, evening and bedtime pills. There are several different systems, including weekly and monthly packages. Morton can automatically fill your bubble packs on a routine schedule and prepare them for pick-up, delivery or mail service.
Calendar Cards/Bubble Packs
Ideal for individuals and caregivers
This system is designed like a monthly calendar with 31 heat sealed bubbles containing all medications needed in a single bubble for a single dose time. A separate calendar card is used for each dose time (e.g. morning, noon, evening, bedtime). Weekly and bi-weekly calendar cards and multidose cards are also available.
PunchPaks (Artromick)
Ideal for caregivers or residencies
The PunchPaks system is similar to the calendar card. The main difference is the plastic frame that encloses the card which contains only one drug (each prescription requires a separate card). The resident's name and dosage time is listed on the side of the plastic frame.
