Medication loops stretched staff
A regional hospital pharmacy in the Midwest moves medications and supply totes between central pharmacy, units, and clinics across a busy campus. Technicians repeated long corridor loops while nurses waited on the next delivery window.
Leadership wanted one dedicated robot to prove steady mileage on mapped routes before funding additional pharmacy units.
- STAT orders sharing elevators
- Long walks from central pharmacy to towers
- Night and weekend runner gaps
Pharmacy-owned mileage focus
The hospital assigned one mobile robot to pharmacy services with supervisors queuing runs on mapped routes. Teams staged totes at release points and tracked miles through the June 2023 through May 2024 award scorecard.
Rollout stayed focused on pharmacy loops until mileage totals stabilized across the full measurement year.
- Map pharmacy connectors before go-live
- Publish pharmacy-owned dispatch by shift
- Review miles monthly against the award window
National top single-robot pharmacy miles
In that twelve-month period the pharmacy robot logged 2,018 documented miles, ranking first nationally among single-robot pharmacy mileage entries in the public RoboHero results.
That figure gives hospital operators a verified benchmark when they compare hospital delivery robot rental against owned pharmacy logistics AMRs.
