Australia’s best medication management network.
BESTMED has grown into Australia's leader in medication management, connecting aged care, pharmacy and clinicians to offer a better and more innovative way of enhancing consumer safety and care.
Laying the foundation to assist over 250,000 Australians
Driven to find a better way to use the latest technology to manage medications for the elderly, BESTMED began as the idea of two pharmacists. Knowing there must be a better way to address the industry's challenges, they founded BESTMED in Sydney Australia in 2015. Over the next decade, they have grown BESTMED from its humble beginnings into Australia's leading cloud-based medication management network.
- Connecting the whole care team
- Minimising medication errors
- Integrating with medication packing and sachet checking machines
- Enabling more care time
- Providing real-time reporting
Now comprising a suite of technology solutions that seamlessly link into a single cloud-based medication chart for each consumer, BESTMED has become the gold standard in medication management.
Over the past decade, our team has grown from two to over 80, with over 250,000 unique consumers benefiting since our launch. As we move into our second decade, we’re flying across Australia connecting a record number of sites, integrating with technology partners and working with Macquarie Uni researchers on the next breakthroughs.
Australia's Best Medication Management Network
As Australia's favourite eNRMC medication management solution for aged care, BESTMED provides an end-to-end network that connects medication prescribing, dispensing and administration to a single resident medication record for improved transparency and safety.
Cloud-based, real-time and transcription-free, BESTMED is an industry leader in developing systems to improve safety, efficiencies and reporting to meet aged care requirements. Investing millions in research and development to eradicate medication errors, BESTMED is already working on next-generation solutions in partnership with Macquarie University researchers. It’s why over 1,000 homes and the majority of Australia’s largest providers choose BESTMED’s connected medication management network for their consumers.
Our unique medication network allows the generation of NRMC medication charts, signing sheets, packaging of DAA’s, automated dispensing, account management, online ordering, and electronic medication administration.
It gives pharmacy owners unparalleled control over their dispensary system, reducing manual handling, minimising margins for error, and allowing faster and more precise sorting, dosing, cutting, grinding, packaging and checking of drugs. And it allows aged care facilities to focus on confidently providing vulnerable Australians care and better medication safety. Every day. Every time.
