Cool-Tel online vaccine monitoring system provides protection which surpasses new NHS advice.

January 29, 2010 by neondrum

The alert (NPSA/2010/RRR008) issued on the 21st of January by the National Patient Safety Agency requires all NHS organisations to ensure that they implement appropriate procedures for monitoring and responding to alerts in vaccine cold storage by July 2010. For vaccines to be effective, it is important that they are stored within the temperature range recommended by manufacturers [+2°C to +8°C]. Cool-Tel systems quietly monitor and record the temperature of pharmacy fridges, or medicines in transit, across the UK and abroad 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Early warning of potential problems are provided to those responsible, giving peace of mind that precious vaccines and medication are safely stored.
