Procedure for Filling Medication Cups
Extreme care must be used in the preparation, filling, and loading of the cups
into the MD.2. Medication and doctor’s orders must be followed exactly. Load only capsules or
pills into the medication cups. NO LIQUIDS, INHALANTS, PATCHES, INJECTABLES
OR NITROGLYCERIN CAN BE DISPENSED THROUGH THIS MACHINE!!! However,
reminder messages to use this type of medication can be included in the medication
schedule.
Procedure for filling dose cups:
1. Verify that the User Medication Worksheet, messages and schedule are accurate and complete.
2. Place the cup-filling tray on a stable surface so that it is easily filled and checked.
3. Install the empty cups in the holes in the tray with one vertical row of up to 6 doses for each
day of the week. If there are to be less than 6 doses for a given day leave the holes empty.
4. Once all cups have been filled, snap the lids on the cups securely. Lids must be pressed
completely and securely on the cups, otherwise, the MD.2 may jam.
Once the cups have been filled with medication, the caregiver is responsible for loading them into
the MD.2. The loading port is located to the right and above the keypad (refer to Figure 4.1).
Accuracy in loading the unit is critical. Double-check each cup before inserting it into the
machine. Check for the right medication in the right dose cup, as well as making sure the lid of
the dose cup is securely and completely closed.
As the machine is loaded, all cups must
be placed with their removable cover facing down.
Failure to insert cups in the unit
in the proper upside down position will result in a malfunction of the unit (cups will jam in the
machine). The MD.2 delivers medication cups from the bottom of the stack. The first cup loaded
is the first cup delivered and corresponds with Dose 1 in schedule, the second cup loaded
corresponds to the 2nd cup delivered and Dose 2 of the schedule, etc.
Throughout the loading process, the MD.2 will inform you by a voice message and through the
display feature, exactly how many medication cups to place in the machine. The MD.2 voice will
instruct you as to the number of cups you will need to load and the display will indicate the
number of cups, the day of the week and the calendar date that is being loaded, as noted in the
following example:
For each day loaded, verify the correct number of medication cups in the machine by pressing the
OK key. It is critical that you follow the directions on the screen.
