A digital CD register built for stock that moves — stores, vehicles, drug bags and clinicians. Running balances that reconcile against physical stock, mandatory witnessing, and an export laid out like the paper register inspectors know. Part of Medicines Management, included in every tier.
Yours is in a bag, on a vehicle, at an event, on someone's shoulder. The register should travel with it.
Hand-carried arithmetic across pages of a bound book. One transposed digit and every balance after it is wrong — discovered months later, at the worst time.
The book stays at the base; the morphine is on the road. Entries get written up hours later, from memory, in a different hand.
A count that doesn't match becomes a margin note and a conversation — not a tracked investigation with an owner and an outcome.
Controlled drugs follow the same journey as the rest of your stock — with extra rigour at every step.
Receipt logged with batch, expiry, quantity and supplier reference. The register starts here.
Per-store registers and minimum-level alarms. Expired stock moves to a quarantine store, out of circulation.
Sealed bags move with the vehicle. Seal removal is reported from the crew's phone the moment it happens.
Always in a named person's custody. Check-out, handover and audits are timestamped against the holder.
Witnessed administration recorded on the ePCR — batch, dose, route — with the register updated in the same motion.
Every controlled drug keeps a live register per bag and store. Rather than trusting a chain of arithmetic, AmbuNet reconciles the ledger against the physical stock the system tracks item by item — so the latest balance is always provably correct.
Controlled-drug actions demand a second pair of eyes — and AmbuNet won't record them without one.
Audits check the physical count against what the system expects — and when the numbers disagree, that becomes a tracked investigation, not a margin note.
Audit a bag's contents batch by batch from the bag's own screen, web or mobile. Coded security seals are verified by scanning them — marked on the audit as verified by scan. Missing and surplus items are reconciled with individual log entries, and governance reviews every audit.
Audit a clinician's controlled drugs with a witness — AmbuNet-tracked stock with the expected quantity calculated from the live register, or their own externally held CDs counted manually.
A count that doesn't match automatically raises a discrepancy record with a status — open, under investigation, resolved — an owner, an update trail and a required resolution note. Governance is notified the moment it's raised.
A discrepancy that warrants it links straight into AmbuNet's incident module — pre-filled, connected to the audit, and feeding your governance KPIs including CD audit pass rate.
Administer, witness, audit and report seals from the phone — the register keeps itself.
Balances, expiry dashboards and a weekly expiry digest — plus bulk tools when stock needs moving.
Audit reviews, discrepancy queue, correction and void authority, and medicines KPIs out of the box.
Export any register as a PDF, show the audit trail, and let the CQC Centre evidence the rest.
The Controlled Drug Register is part of Medicines Management, included in every AmbuNet tier on web and mobile — no extra module, no per-register pricing.
