Patient Safety – it's in our DNA
Because our platform is built by pharmacists for healthcare professionals, Pharmapod is the leading cloud-based software for driving efficiencies and measures and reducing Patient Safety Incidents (PSIs) in community pharmacies, long term care, and hospitals.
It is the first international platform of its kind to pool and share patient safety data across borders, monitoring trends and causes behind medication errors, and empowering healthcare professionals locally to improve their practice.
Pharmapod is a professionally led solution; developed and led by pharmacists, we believe in the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach and the Pharmapod system has evolved to also meet the needs of other healthcare professionals such as physicians and nurses.

International Response Teams Forming
A Global Centre of Excellence
In response to the WHO's Global Medical Safety Challenge, we are setting up a local 'Response Team' in each country to review the data on medication errors that are submitted.
We believe part of what is broken with the current health system is that there has been a focus on the collection of data but not an effective environment-specific 'response' to the data that makes it's way to the coalface of practice in the form of actionable, trackable preventative actions.
Client Testimonials
What our clients think

We use the Pharmapod system to track the level of Abuse and Misuse of medicines that our pharmacists encounter. For the first time, we are able to record and share our experiences and learn objectively about the particular medicines involved as well as log the advice and support provided to this patient cohort. Pharmapod is an excellent, well thought out system that brings measurable benefits to our practice, our patients and the profession as a whole.

Pharmapod forms an important part of our undergraduate Pharmacy degree programme. Pharmapod helps our students collaboratively learn from errors in dispensing and understand the concepts of quality and risk in pharmacy. Their use of Pharmapod throughout their training will help foster a safety culture from the earliest days of their training that will stand to them in practice.

Pharmapod is an essential tool to achieving pharmacy efficiency; using the cloud-based system results in ease of access to all files, with no more time wasted looking through folders and boxes. The cloud-based system means it can be accessible from all devices therefore when staff are working from both locations they can easily log in to the system and continue to log incidents.

The capability to learn from incidents is incredible, much better than it was when we used spreadsheets. We can now easily put practises into place which prevent reoccurrences. We can access Pharmapod on every device including the Alphega tablet, so any member of staff can access the system quickly and easily.
