Smila and the City of Jyväskylä: "Medicine dispensers make independent home care easier”
The home care service in Jyväskylä has just expanded the use of Tamro’s Smila home care system in addition to the two automated medicine dispersers already in use. This follows a successful pilot phase, when the systems received positive feedback from both care staff and those living independently at home. For the carers, automated medicine dispensing leaves them with more time for interacting with the persons living at home.
The cooperation between Tamro and Otsuka started
The Japanese pharmaceutical company Otsuka and service provider and distributor of pharmaceuticals and health products Tamro have started cooperating in Finland. The multi-year agreement covers the storage and distribution of pharmaceutical products to pharmacies and hospitals.
Connecting the health sector
Availability of medicines and health products
We are one of the organisations that are vital for the security of supply, as we deliver medicines to hospitals and pharmacies as well as for the use of public and private health care. As a part of critical infrastructure we need to ensure the availability of medicines in all circumstances.
Health to Finnish people
We have an important role to play in Finnish society, as we safeguard public health services and health care. We always have the patient’s best interest at heart. We ensure the quick and high-quality delivery of medicines to Finnish consumers. We do our part to make sure that medicines are available and actively develop the quality of pharmaceutical distribution.
Research cooperation in the health sector
The health value chain begins with research activities, which aim at finding new, improved and more effective treatments and at preventing diseases. At the end of the value chain is the Finnish patient, whose health and well-being motivate the entire health value chain.
Supporting innovation in the health sector
We want to promote constructive debate on the future of the health and wellbeing sector and to be involved in supporting innovation in the field. We want to influence developments and prepare for the future together with our customers in a rapidly changing operational environment.
