2. National Healthcare Innovation & Productivity Medals 2026

   Congratulations to the NUH Main Building Pharmacy team on being awarded the Best Practice Medal in Automation, IT & Robotics Innovation at the National Healthcare Innovation & Productivity Medals 2026!
    
   The team's pioneering pharmacy centralisation project successfully integrated inpatient, emergency, and outpatient pharmacy services under one roof, supported by automation and smart technologies across all three areas.
    
   These innovations have enhanced medication safety, shortened outpatient prescription waiting times and discharge medication turnaround, improved workforce efficiency, and strengthened long-term workforce sustainability.
    
   This remarkable achievement was made possible through the strong support of leaders and the unwavering dedication of the team. Along the journey, the project also fostered stronger collaboration and camaraderie within the department of pharmacy.
