Baltimore-based long-term care pharmacy Remedi SeniorCare opened its second location on Sept. 26 on Lakeridge Parkway in Hanover County. The 22,000-square-foot facility has the capacity to support 10,000 residents living in nursing, assisted living and rehabilitation homes with Paxit, a 24-hour automated medication dispensing system. “We’ve put out over 60 million doses from our robots with zero errors,” says CEO Michael Bronfein. Company officials say the technology reduces medication costs by 15 percent or more, in part by eliminating waste associated with drug distribution.
