Innovation at Kedvon Pharmacy
In this video, Dr. Vlada Korol, president and pharmacist of Kedvon Pharmacy, shares her experience investing in the KL1Plus automated pill counting machines. Initially, she was hesitant because of the cost and believed her existing counting equipment worked well. However, as the needs of the pharmacy grew and new challenges arose, she decided to embrace change and invest in modern automation.
After implementing the KL1Plus machines, she quickly realized the positive impact they had on her team and workflow. The machines helped automate repetitive counting tasks, allowing pharmacists and technicians to spend more time helping patients, answering questions, and providing personalized care. Dr. Korol describes the experience as feeling like "you're not alone anymore" because the technology acts like an extra helping hand without adding additional staff to the payroll.
Because of the success she saw at one location, Dr. Korol expanded the technology to both the Wheeling and Buffalo Grove pharmacies, ultimately purchasing four KL1Plus machines. She believes it was one of the best investments she has made, improving efficiency, reducing stress, and allowing her team to focus on what matters most—caring for patients and serving the community.
The video highlights Dr. Korol's forward-thinking leadership, willingness to embrace innovation, and dedication to continuously improving the patient experience at Kedvon Pharmacy.
