Just a consideration:
In the world of technology, many things seem easier, but are they safer?
How many times are you still using paper? In this paperless world?
Are all of the orders in place and easy to find?
The quagmire of pitfalls has risen. It is so easy to point and click, making it easier to miss things. Vigilance is important, as well as having the time to be thorough. You can too often only hope to have the time needed to be vigilant.
Computerized order sets need to include all actions required to treat your patients safely and meet their needs; Monitoring and medications are only part of the sets to be included in protecting your patients and your practice.
Are they there and do you know where to find them?
Is your practice safe and all items covered?

Hi Terry, this is a show called The Nursing Revolution. Our ideas are very similar and perhaps we could join forces and try to create a stronger force. There are 3 million nurses in USA and that is a very large force.
Anyways, perhaps you could listen to our shows and know what we are about.

Take care of others but first take care of yourself.
