PCA Keys

Hi, We are trying to reduce the variation in how we secure and keep track of PCA keys. We are thinking about putting them into our automated dispensing machines (ADM), but not all of our areas have them. Plus even in the areas that keep the keys in the ADM with the keys do not create discprencies as we have it set it up so that they can remove and put back the keys.

Where do you keep the key(s)?
How do you keep track of who has the key(s)?

Thanks ~Jenn
