Friday, 30 July 2010

At Massena Memorial Hospital, nurses do their rounds using new machines to avoid medication errors and maintain the safety of their patients. The state Department of Health granted the amount of $141,000 to the hospital to acquire and implement a Bedside Medication Verification system. The new machines utilize a bar-code system to avert probable medication mistakes to MMH patients particularly in the medical, surgical, pediatric, telemetry and ICU. Before the nurses oversee the patient's medication, nurses will scan the barcode reader on the patient's hospital bracelet to read the patient's electronic medical record. This will help them to review the patient's information on allergies, recent test results, vital signs, medical history and other pertinent data.

Courtney Hansen, a 27-year-old graduate from Moorpark College, stated, When we all started nursing school, we thought, We're going to get sign-on bonuses and a job right away'.
