Nurses struggle to safely transport and administer narcotics and other medications when patients are not in their rooms, requiring them to carry medication cups around the floor while searching for water or the patient.

Existing medication administration workflow relies on a simple cup that is not designed for mobile use, forcing nurses to carry open containers of narcotics, risking spills and security issues.
