Hospital Supply Delivery

Transform hospital logistics with AMRs that safely haul meds, samples, and linens. Free clinicians from endless walking so they can focus on patient care with 24/7 efficiency.

Hospital Supply Delivery

Why Automate Hospital Supply Delivery?

Staff Efficiency

Nurses log miles daily—automation cuts fatigue, keeps them bedside.

24/7 Availability

No breaks means supplies and results move anytime.

Chain of Custody

Lockable compartments with badge or biometric access for controlled meds.

Infection Control

Less contact: easy-clean bots avoid spreading bugs between floors.

Cost Reduction

Operational savings yield ROI in 12-18 months.

Intelligent Navigation

LiDAR and cameras navigate busy halls, effortlessly dodging carts and people.

Seamless Integration into Clinical Workflows

Our system integrates with your layout via FMS. Requests from tablets or HIS dispatch bots from pharmacy to station via the best route.

Sensors fuse LiDAR, depth cams, and ultrasonics for live mapping—they wait or detour around jams.

IoT connects with elevators and doors: calls them, picks floors, exits solo, and authenticates deliveries.

Workflow Diagram

Where It's Used

Pharmacy to Ward

Secure meds and IVs: locks at the start, badge or PIN unlock at the ward, with full logs.

Laboratory Logistics

Rush blood, biopsies, or urine from OR/ER to lab—gentle rides keep samples stable.

Dietary & Food Service

Ad-hoc meals/snacks: secure, temp-controlled delivery off-schedule.

Sterile Processing

CSSD to OR for tools/supplies—separate clean/dirty paths.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the robot interact with elevators?

Elevator integration? Wireless or API—handles calls, doors, floors, safe exits, no human help needed.

Is it safe to operate around patients and visitors?

Safe? Redundant LiDAR/depth stop or reroute from obstacles/people.

How secure are the medications inside the robot?

Compartments? Locked tight, badge/finger/PIN only, logged access.

What happens if there is a Wi-Fi dead zone?

No Wi-Fi? Local map keeps it moving, syncs later.

How long does the battery last?

8-10 hrs runtime; opportunity charge for near-24/7.

Can the robot carry hazardous materials?

Liquids OK? If sealed right, smooth starts/stops prevent issues.

How long does installation take?

Setup? 1-2 days per wing, 1-3 weeks full rollout with elevators.

Is the robot easy to clean?

Cleanable? Yes, tough surfaces take disinfectants and UV.

Does it require a dedicated operator?

Manual drive? No, touchscreens for dispatch; IT dashboard only.

What is the ROI time frame?

ROI? 12-18 months via labor/med savings, more patient time.
