What Technologies Aid in Ensuring Accuracy in Nursing?
Several technologies aid in ensuring accuracy in nursing, including electronic health records (EHRs), barcode medication administration (BCMA) systems, and point-of-care testing devices. EHRs provide a comprehensive and up-to-date patient history, reducing the likelihood of errors. BCMA systems help verify the "Five Rights" of medication administration, while point-of-care testing devices offer immediate and accurate diagnostic results.
