I dropped in to the local pharmacy
today to take a few photos of their robotic dispenser. It is an
amazing machine which is reputed to cost about the same as a very
expensive car. There are around six pharmacies in the state with
these machines. Jamie, the Pharmacist, gave me a run down on how it
worked and I was able to see it automatically searching for medicines
and taking them up to the top of a spiral slide to spin down to a
delivery tray ready to give to customers. It is behind a glass wall,
which I imagine, is villain-proof. Very impressive.
Here is a pic of Jamie awaiting the
goodies. Handsome fella isn't he? I have met his parents and
taught his lovely sister Roselene. The whole family is most
pleasant.

I haven't seen one of these machines before Kev, not sure if I would want to use them or not. It may cause drug addicts to try and take our meds as we make our way to our vehicle. Perhaps I am being a bit of a drama queen. Hope your weather is warmer......:-)Hugs
Bernie, I still have to take my medications to my car the same as from a regular pharmacy.
