Continued new investment in Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture helps keep us at the very forefront of Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture in the United Kingdom.

Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture facilities

We operate a continued process of improvement in our design and production of our Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture methods. The recent introduction of new sizes and ranges of both Controlled drugs cabinets and Medicine cabinets necessitates a more modern and streamlined Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture system. To this end we have recently taken delivery of and installed two state of the art Press brake machines with fully programmable systems.

The new systems installed on these machines allow pre-programming of all the various bend permutations associated with the numerous different cabinet types we manufacture. For instance a  CDC 101s Controlled Drugs Cabinet 480mm H x 560mm W x 160mm D requires different bend sizes to  for example a MED-300 Medicine Cabinet  900mm H X 600mm W X 300mm D. With the systems available to us with these new machines the particular bend sizes peculiar to each product type is programmed in just the once and recorded. Therefor when the next batch of Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture is undertaken of a particular cabinet type these specific details are presented to the operator. When the part number is input the machine will move the back stop to the correct position for the first bend, automatically calculate the required bending pressure for that bend and wait for the operator to action the process. Once that bend has been carried out the machine will set its self-up for the second and any subsequent operations in the sequence. This helps reduce operator error and ensures with the use of the correct bending tonnage, the machine is not overstressed and damaged.

These machines were installed during 2014 and have proved to be a very valuable addition to our Controlled drugs cabinet manufacture method.

The safe storage of controlled drugs cabinet keys are as important as the storage of the Controlled drugs themselves. Insecurely kept controlled drugs cabinet keys will compromise the arrangements put in place for the security of the controlled drugs.

Poor key security will undermine the value of having a controlled drugs cabinet in the first place. If controlled drugs cabinet keys can easily be obtained by unauthorised personnel then the construction of the cabinet itself is to a large degree irrelevant. Care need to be taken when selecting the location for the storage of keys in particular any spare sets.

The Misuse of drugs (safe custody) regulations 1974 and BS 2881:1989 do not legislate for the use of Combination type locks on controlled drugs cabinets so conventional keys only can be used.  Therefore to protect the keys it is sensible to use a key safe with a combination lock. This will ensure  the safe storage of controlled drugs cabinet keys and prevent their unauthorised use.

Where a single or very small number of controlled drugs cabinets are used then a small key safe will be sufficient to safely store the controlled drugs cabinet keys.

However where a larger number of cabinets are used it may be preferable to use either:-

• A larger key safe which will provide for the storage of a larger number of keys. Consideration should be given to the construction of type of safe as covered later in this piece.
• To mitigate the risk, several small combination key safes could be used. One key safe per cabinet  would increase the security and give more specific access to the individual cabinets.

If the larger key safe method of controlled drugs cabinet key storage is preferred then consideration must be given to the construction of the key safe itself. The key safe must be manufactured to at least the same or higher level of security than that of the controlled drugs cabinets the keys are for. Consideration should also be given to the method of fixing to a wall to prevent the unit from being removed. It is good practice to site the key safe away from the cabinets it contains the keys for and not to put any identifiable marks on the outside to the cabinet to identify what is kept within.

If the key safe is only made from thin material then its security or lack of it will compromise and undermine the security of all the cabinets for which it holds the keys.

It is not considered good practice to keep controlled drugs cabinet keys in a desk drawer or other locked piece of office furniture.

If combination key safes are used then the suggestions below are considered to be good practice:-

• Do not write down the combination
• If the combinations are issued to individual members of staff do not share these with other staff members.
• Change all combinations regularly, at least twice yearly.
• Change combinations when there are grounds to suspect they may have become compromised.
• Change the combination whenever a staff member with access to the code moves department or leaves.

The information contained within this blog is by no means exhaustive. You are strongly advised to seek advice from your accountable officer before implementing any of the suggestions made above.

However we hope this is of assistance and should you wish to discuss it or any aspect of the storage of Controlled drugs further we would be happy to help if we can.
