- Description
- Statement of Need (SON) Lebanon and Wilmington VA Medical Centers Howard Medical Carts Title of Project: Two (2) Howard Med HUB-E Storage Cabinets, and two (2) Howard Pinnacle Medical carts. Background: The Lebanon VA Medical Center (LVAMC) has a Brand Name Only requirement for two (2) Howard Med HUB-E Storage Cabinets for the activation of a new Medical Surgery Unit. Wilmington VA Medical Center has determined a brand-name requirement for two (2) new Howard Pinnacle Medical carts with 18 patient bins and storage drawers, On-site Setup, and Integration. Scope of Work: The vendor shall provide all resources necessary to accomplish the deliverables described in this Statement of Need (SON), except as may otherwise be specified. The Howard Med HUB-E Storage Cabinets are needed to supplement the current ones utilized throughout the facility and to enable the medication-filled cassettes to be interchangeable. General Requirement: 1) This is a Brand Name Only requirement for two (2) Howard Med HUB-E Storage Cabinets (MPN# MED HUB-E) to be used in the LVAMC Medical Surgery Unit. LVAMC currently uses Howard brand Workstation on Wheels (WOWs), Howard brand Med Carts, and Howard brand Med Hubs throughout its facility. The Med Hub, with its interchangeable cassette drawer system and E-Comm Centralized Control Panel, is designed to provide secure, decentralized medication storage in our Medical Surgery Unit. The need to integrate the storage of medication in the new Medical Surgery Unit with already existing Howard brand medical equipment is critical in the secure transfer of medication-filled cassettes from the Pharmacy to the Medical Surgery Unit. When it's time for a med pass, all patient medications are there--no need for extra trips to the pharmacy. Medication filled cassettes can be switched easily from the Med Hub to POC carts and transported to patient rooms. Using the same interchangeable cassette drawer system from the Pharmacy to patient increases accuracy, minimizes medication errors, and improves patient care. The Howard Med HUB-E Storage Cabinets (MPN# MED HUB E) should have the following characteristics: Hub Dimensions: 19.1 W x 53 H x 17.9 D 10-tier HI-Paradigm & Pinnacle E (v2) Med Hub Three (3) Patient Bins (Each with dividers included) per tier for a total of thirty (30) 5.5 bins Integrated lower non-locking general storage area with 2 metal drawers Membrane Keypad interface for electronic user PIN code drawer access Manual bypass key lock feature Medical-Grade (All Touch Surfaces) Electronic Locking and Sensing System for main cabinet 1000 User IDs Removable Cassettes Delivery: The vendor shall deliver all equipment required under this SON.
