Pill crusher

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have a success story to share related to pill crushers? Are there any processes or products that check all the boxes (TJC compliant, good review from nurses, easy to keep clean, effective at crushing the pills)? If your institution has a product or process that is working, I would love to hear about it.

We currently are using the SafeCrush system, but have much difficulty with it actually working well and keeping it clean.

Thanks in advance!
Emily
