Webster Packing
Manning River Pharmacy is well known as a Webster packing pharmacy (or provider of dose administration aids).
We provide Webster pack services to many local institutions, aged care facilities and private residents, our pharmacy is equipped to ensure community medication compliance.
A Webster-pak is a safe and simple medication pack. It sets out all the tablets and capsules that need to be taken at each particular time of the day, for each day of the week. This makes it easy to manage medication.
The pharmacist takes the doctor’s prescriptions and dispenses the medication into a blister pack. This pack is securely sealed so the medication is protected and there is no chance of spilling or mixing things up.
The pack lists all the contents plus other medications taken, providing vital information for hospital or ambulance staff in the case of emergency.
When it is time to take the medication, the person or carer simply pushes out the contents of the blister through the foil backing for the correct time on the correct day.
Webster-pak provides a visual cue, so you always know where you are up to. It is as easy as that!
