For Ms. Bea: I don't find it wise to conduct a daily inventory of medicines. Monthly, quarterly, semi-annual inventory may do.

This is my suggestion instead to have an orderly 'release' of drugs:

1. The medicines must have 1 or 2 custodians 'securing those meds' and that they are the only ones authorized to release them for proper accounting.

2. There must be a locked cabinet intended for these drugs or meds. Presently these drugs are just put atop the table in the conference room and anybody (those attending meetings and other persons could just freely enter in and go out of that room where those meds are placed. Before these drugs were placed on the shelves but still, any person can reach them and securing them that way is not enough. Any person can be tempted to get them without the knowledge of clinic staff.

3. A stub or log book can be prepared to record those meds released or dispensed from the locked cabinet so there will be simple addition and subtraction of drugs gotten or dispensed. Actual physical check of remaining drugs need not be done daily. That simple record of logbook of stub for dispensed drugs will simply tell how many drugs are dispensed in a day's time so 'dagdag bawas' can simply be accounted for rather that spend much time counting these drugs one by one. This is my suggestion. The system (recording/inventory) is made for man not man for the system. Thanks.-Carlo
