Do they get any easier???? This blister packs are from hell. Do all LTC use them and if not what do you use? I spend what seems like have my shift shuffling through hundreds of blister packs trying to find the right one. They are separated by patient but some patients are on 20 meds and then extras show up in the draw just for the hell of it. I'm a float so I don't even get a chance to try to remember what a patient maybe on because I'm not with them enough.

Like most LTC I have 30 patients and if I'm on rehab unit I get 14 patients but more acute needs.

Specializes in Progressive, Intermediate Care, and Stepdown.

Put a piece of tape over the the top of the lid then write on the tape with permanent marker. That's what I do and seems to work well. :) Doesn't wear off either.

There are no lids for the most part. All blister packs.
