The program is unique to KP in that it addresses, on a national scale, issues of medication safety in the outpatient setting. To identify issues relating to medication use, the program uses a systematic approach and an implementation process that educates and trains staff, leverages known and observed practices across KP's outpatient medical centers, and provides a mechanism for periodically measuring improvement of processes and systems. The assessment program was designed to achieve the following main goals: • identify existing processes and systems susceptible to medication errors in the outpatient medical centers; • increase the use of successful practices in KP's outpatient setting by compiling known and observed successful practices and then leverag-ing that information across the program; • involve outpatient medical centers in the process both for their education and to involve them more fully (create a \" sense of ownership \") in patient and medication safety; and • through development of self-assessment tools, enable KP Regions to periodically monitor processes and systems that will result in safer medication use practices.","PeriodicalId":241523,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Effects of Acidic Deposition","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124176309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
