Information Management has far surpassed the information on the related on-line tutorial. Many hospitals currently have computerized charts. We recently implemented a bar-coding process to help with medication management. Our biggest challenge was the computer illertacay on the part of our nurses. We have a devoted nursing staff and many have been with us for years. Once we all became computer savvy, it became second nature to all. We are finding more med errors which is good, because of the sensitivity of the process, but errors are caught before they reach the patient. The process has definitely improved patient safety.
