Hello,

Greetings!

We've been asked to develop a care coordination model for the med management process involving Pharmacy. WE only need to create the model for now, not implement but our internal leaders (clinical, informatics, operations, ambulatory & med safety) feel a bit overwhelmed by how big this seems. Looking at med management points of handoff at various points of thru put for a patient, even given the multiple points of entry seems to be a lot to commit to processes for most patients.

I am working with a colleague that is interested in medication error trends during the COVID 19 pandemic. Below is a summary of the research and a link to a survey. It takes about 15 minutes to complete and contains 6 questions. Completely voluntary participation.

Hi - we just recently went live with B.Braun pump integration and are running into a few IV medications (primarily antibiotics) that are not currently in our smart pumps. Due to low use, we have not added these to formulary, but are concerned that there could be administration errors if they are not built in the pump. How are other institutions handling the addition of non-formulary medications in their smart pump library?

Thanks,
Jaime

Dear all:

I would like to take your opinion in the following:
In our hospital we use Insulin pen in the inpatient setting as a patient specific medication devices, when dispensing the medication to the patient we label it with a patient specific dose including patient identification, dose, route frequency and a barcode. and when there is any change in the dose and/or frequency the pharmacy is expected to re-dispense a new pen to the patient labelled with a correct information that is reflected on the medication barcode.

For those of you stocking Andexxa in a non-24/7 facility:
1. who prepares?
2. do you have a training document you are willing to share?
3. do you have special safeguards for retrieving from ADC or other storage?
4. any other valuable information you can provide is welcomed

Hi all,
I would like to reach out to discuss ways your hospital implemented to provide a med review tool for drugs administered in OR.

A med error occurred due to allergies was not checked prior to nursing pulling meds or provider administer.

Thoughts?

Hi there,
I know others have posted about implementing block charting, but we are specifically interested examples of note templates from Epic users? If anyone has a template they can share, it would me much appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
