Nice. Thanks for sharing.

 

In regards to pagers, I recently worked with a hospital that used a
similar system for nurse notification of critical labs. When a panic
value was resulted, it automatically paged the nurse. The pager was also
a phone. This facility had also worked out a process whereby
nurse/physician communication took place on those phones as well,
greatly minimizing the phone call chaos at the central station. I forget
the name of the pager/phone system, but could find out if anyone is
interested. Sharon

MIS Notifications as Brent M. posted earlier - directly to an
alpha-numeric pager...excellent results at multiple facilities.  As for
getting RT to use eMAR, why not build their documenting CDS in an eMAR
format and let them bill right from there as well?  One stop
shopping...there's an example posted at www.MeditechTalk.com
<http://www.meditechtalk.com/>  - later.

What I've seen is that Pharmacy not only puts the meds on the eMAR, they
enter an RT order in OE which prints to the RT office. However, my
experience has been that even so, it can be difficult to get RTs to be
compliant with documenting their treatments in eMAR, or if they do, to
get them to scan first. Sharon

Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Respiratory meds and BMV / eMAR

 

Just wondering how other places are handling this issue....we are C/S
5.5 sr 2 . 

 

We are missing some respiratory med doses because here our respiratory
staff give the respiratory meds, but

frequently do not know who needs the med or when it is to be given. 

We do use BMV and eMAR here but because these meds are given by
Respiratory , the nursing staff does 

not do anything with these meds including notifying Respiratory. 

 

Respiratory does not have a way to see who in the building needs
respiratory meds, unless they look at every 

patient eMAR . 

 

The problem is when Pharmacy orders a handful of specific meds that
respiratory dept is responsible to 

give the patient, we do not have a way in the system to notify
respiratory that the meds are due or ordered. 

 

Does anyone else have this issue ? If so , how are you getting notified
?
