Description
Each year, Pittsburgh’s St. Clair Hospital prevents more than 5,000 medical errors at the point of care. Through a “dynamic duo” of bar coding and RFID, St. Clair’s has measurably improved its medication administration and lab specimen collection processes, resulting in increased patient safety at the bedside. Coupled with the hospital's dedication to the Five Rights of Medication Administration, St. Clair’s continues to find better ways to use technology to prevent errors and increase patient safety.
In an intensive case study, Tom Ague, EVP/COO, and Richard Schaeffer, VP/CIO, will walk attendees through the processes that led to creating a patient safety technology initiative that has won national recognition.
