Zusammenfassung:An automated health care facility for the administration of medication to patients is disclosed. The automated health care facility can include a plurality of data entry terminals for entry of information such as prescription information identifying a prescription of medication to be provided to a particular patient. A pharmacy, for receiving prescription information from the data entry terminals prepares and dispenses medication in accordance with the prescription. A patient database can be used to store patient data information, and a pharmaceutical database can be used to store information relating to one or more medications such as those dispensed by the pharmacy. An automated medicated infusion device prepares and administers medications to a patient. Information in one or more databases can be accessed to assist in prescribing medication and preventing medication errors.
