Pharmacy counters are small, busy and need to be spotless. That’s why more pharmacy groups are choosing a touch screen PC for pharmacy counters and consultation rooms: fast to use, easy to wipe, and no keyboard collecting dust. Here’s what we supply to pharmacy IT partners across the UK.
Community pharmacies have become busy clinical hubs as well as retail shops. Alongside prescriptions and over-the-counter sales, many now deliver vaccinations, blood pressure checks and Pharmacy First consultations. Every one of those services relies on dependable computers. A pharmacy touch screen PC in an all-in-one format gives the counter, dispensary and consultation room a compact, easy-to-clean terminal that staff can use quickly between patients.
Why pharmacies choose touch screen all-in-one PCs
- Small footprint: counters and dispensary benches are tight on space, and an AIO removes the tower and extra cables.
- Hygiene: a flat-fronted touch screen is easy to wipe down between patients.
- Speed: large on-screen buttons help staff process sales and look up products faster.
- Reliability: Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 platforms with SSD storage keep PMR and EPOS software responsive.
Where touch AIO PCs are used in a pharmacy
At the counter
A touch screen AIO makes an ideal pharmacy EPOS till, handling OTC sales, prescription collection, loyalty and card payments. Combine it with a barcode scanner, receipt printer and cash drawer for a full point of sale. For a dedicated EPOS terminal, see the HiStone HK568 or HK566Q.
In the dispensary
Patient medication record (PMR) systems, electronic prescription service workflows and label printing all need a reliable desktop. A VESA-mounted all-in-one frees up bench space for dispensing.
In the consultation room
Clinical services require pharmacists to record consultations as they go. A touch AIO on a desk or wall arm keeps notes close at hand without crowding the room.
Specifying the right AIO for pharmacy
Our touch screen all-in-one range includes the E24, BF24, T22 and T20. All use standard Thin Mini ITX boards, SO-DIMM memory and M.2 SSD storage, with VESA mounting and Kensington lock points for security.
- Choose Windows 11 Pro for compatibility with leading pharmacy PMR and EPOS software.
- Specify at least 8GB RAM and an SSD for smooth multitasking between PMR, EPOS and NHS systems.
- Use VESA arms to keep counters and dispensary benches clear.
