Delivering medication directly to the patient, in a temperature-controlled and GPS-monitored cold-storage box.
In order to ensure the safe delivery of the medication during the 'last mile': from the mobile pharmacy to the patients' homes, we will be purchasing 300 'Cool Meds' storage boxes. These are special containers that meet the strictest Ministry of Health criteria for pharmaceutical storage and transfer.

The Keep Cool Meds box arrives in 3 sizes:
