Rubbermaid Medical Solutions Launches Mini-Med Module to Pair with Motion C5 Tablet

8/10/07 – Rubbermaid Medical Solutions (RMS) is partnering with Motion Computing (www.motioncomputing.com) to provide an ultra-small form factor medication cart for use with the C5 Tablet PC. The Mini-Med Module securely transports medications for up to 8 patients, and provides secure storage of the C5 device.

“The launch of the Motion C5 Tablet at HIMSS 2007 has re-energized interest in the handheld device. As providers determine the role of the C5 in their medication management systems, our goal at RMS is to provide a small, lightweight support platform to address open issues such as medication security, nursing workflow and security of the C5 device,” according to Jeff Chochinov, Senior Product Manager at RMS.

“We are excited with the flexibility the Motion C5 provides our clients,” states Gary Scott, GM/VP of Rubbermaid Medical Solution. “However, the most common concern we hear from our clients is the need to satisfy Joint Commission guidelines on secure medication transport all the way to the bedside. Our Mini does this job at a great price point.”

The Mini Medication Cart Module (Mini-Med Module) from RMS will be available for shipping in October 2007. Configurations include both a 12-drawer model for high capacity needs, and an 8-drawer model that includes a large storage bin for the Motion C5 when the tablet is not in use. Both models provide electronic PIN code access to medications/tablet storage with a timed auto-lock.
