Security-driven tape dispensers

RN Karen Kiefer discussed the impact packaging has on purchasing decisions at Texas Health Resources (THR) during HealthPack 2006. Healthcare continues to change dramatically for professionals at THR, a faith-based, nonprofit U.S. healthcare system that includes 13 hospitals and more than 2,400 licensed beds and serves patients in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. As director, operating room supply chain management, Kiefer explained some of the key packaging challenges THR faces in her presentation, "The Impact of Packaging on Purchase Decisions." They include the following:

• apply tamper-evident seals to increase security of pharmaceuticals

• Model 333 Plus manual water-activated tape dispenser is for light- to medium volume packing

• 555e-series electronic water-activated tape dispenser passes current UL requirements for electronic and operational safety while also meeting FCC, CE, CSA, and CUL regulatory requirements
