Bar-code technology for medication administration: medication errors and nurse satisfaction
Abstract
A barcode administration system provides a safe mechanism for the delivery of medications throughout the entire process, but factors that negatively impact nurse satisfaction need to be addressed. The impact of a barcode medication administration system on nurse satisfaction and Category C medication errors was investigated in this longitudinal, descriptive study.
