"To further improve labeling, five studies recommended using technology (eg, label printers, barcode scanners) to aid in labeling syringes." - Julie Boytim #ASHP19 #patientsafety #anesthesia #medtech #medtwitter #pharmacy vigilantlabels.com/learn-about-me…

Extremely humbling and eye-opening presentation highlighting the patient’s perspective in the ICU. It’s sometimes easy to forget that the patient in front of you is a human with fears and emotions; remembering that will help create the best possible experience for them #ASHP19

Hospitals are investing huge sums of money to increase their doctor's and staff's productivity, but #anesthesia workflows are being overlooked. Are we justifying perioperative #medicationerrors or are we taking the steps to #overcome them? #medtwitter #patientsafety #medtech

APSF’s own Jeff Cooper, PhD, gives the ASA Pierce lecture on #patientsafety: “Something that happens in every industry: as safety advances, the system increases the risk by increasing production.” ASA® #ptsafety apsf.org/news-updates/w…

Hospitals across the country are modernizing the #anesthesia process with Vigilant to reduce lost charges, non-compliance, and #patientsafety risks. Do you need an upgrade when it comes to syringe labeling and documentation? #medtech #healthcare vigilantlabels.com

Sadly situations like this do happen...some more fatal than others. What are you doing as an #anesthesia provider to ensure this does not happen to you? #patientsafety #medicationerror

I’m new to this, but it’s apparently a Thing. Blue light OT for enhanced laparoscopic view. Just FYI, there is zero filter on this photo. This is how my drug labels look right now... It’s a drug error waiting to happen.

Our warmest wishes from the entire Vigilant team! We hope the #holidays are filled with memories that last a lifetime. #HappyHolidays #holidayseason2019

Medication errors are more common than you may think and often lead to patient harm and even death. Hospitals can prevent these events and their adverse effects by implementing our APSS#3, Medication Safety. bit.ly/2rUF8yp #PLAN4ZERO
