14 Auto-Verification: What is TJC position? Auto-verification is a process that is part of the functionality of some EMR vendors that aows, depending on how it is set up by client, to aow access to medications without a pharmacist review Use of auto-verification in some settings where pharmacist review has been required In conflict with MM EP 1 and not an acceptable alternative to the required RPH review of order 27 MM Pharmacy Preparation of IV admixtures Intent: To move IV admixture preparation out of the nursing unit Consider where IV admixtures might be prepared outside the pharmacy Pharmacy should consider ways to make IV admixtures available when needed without admixture by nurses These are not exceptions: Non 24/7 pharmacies; ORs; off-site clinics
15 MM Emergency Medications Determination of contents Process for ensuring availability Replenishment Separate packaging of pediatric from adult medications in combined cart Ready to administer dosage forms 29 MM Safe dispensing of medications Medications are dispensed in the most ready-toadminister forms commerciay available and, if feasible, in unit doses that have been repackaged by the pharmacy or licensed repackager.

25 Questions MEDICATION MANAGEMENT UPDATE Tackling Our Problems To Resolve Them 25
26 Program Objectives Identify the most problematic Medication Management standards in 2015 for our associated facilities Outline areas of focus and issues to be addressed for each of those identified problematic standards Discuss actions to resolve the issues and enhance compliance to the identified problematic standards 51 Most Problematic MM Standards The majority of our MM RFIs were cited at: MM relates to safe storage of medications in compliance with law, regulation and manufacturer s guidelines (EPs 2-8 & 18) MM relates to clear, complete and accurate medication orders to enhance communication between a participants in the medication management process (EPs 1, 3, 6-9, 13 and 15) MM relates to the pharmacist s review of the appropriateness of medication orders for medications that are to be dispensed in the hospital (EPs 1, 8, 13)
27 Historical Perspective MM MM MM Over the past 3 year accreditation cycle, a three of these standards have been problematic for our facilities While there has been dramatic improvement in the outcomes for MM and MM ,but that is not true for MM MM Areas of Focus Special storage conditions Medications in warming cabinets Refrigerated medications Monitoring conditions 24/7 Temperature logs with temperatures out of acceptable range without recorded actions Securing medications from unauthorized access Locking storage areas v. continuous supervision Disposal of controed substances Securing prescription pads 27
28 55 MM Areas of Focus Expired medications Dating multidose containers upon opening Expired medications that remain accessible for administration IV bags removed from overwraps or stored in warmers without revised expiration dates 56 Improving MM Outcomes Ensure your written policy on medication storage addresses a elements of storage Locking v. constant supervision Who may access the locked areas The circumstances under which they may have access Educate staff to revise expiration dates of medications stored in a warming cabinet- foow the manufacturer s guidelines! Review refrigerator temperature logs and provide refresher training when out of range temperatures are recorded without appropriate actions being documented Ensure that Crash Carts are visible at a times, especiay if stored in occupied ED rooms 28
29 MM Areas of Focus Incomplete medication orders Order lacks any of the parameters required by policy (i.e. route of administration, frequency of dosing, etc.) Order includes prohibited abbreviations Weight-based dosing required but not done Not clarified with prescriber prior to medication being dispensed Blanket Resume Orders Medication orders not found in the patient record Undocumented verbal orders Missing protocols MM Areas of Focus Unresolved therapeutic duplication Orders lack selection criteria to guide administration Involves preprinted order sets as we as orders generated by an individual provider Not clarified with prescriber prior to medication being dispensed Titration and Sedation orders Lack specific criteria i for titration (initial iti and/or incremental doses, clinical parameters) Lack sedation goal and/or dosing parameters Not clarified with prescriber prior to medication being dispensed 29
30 Improving MM Outcomes Educate and re-educate a clinical staff involved in the medication management process on a requirements of a complete order Review preprinted order sets to ensure only complete, accurate orders are included Monitor the clarification process to ensure incomplete, inaccurate orders are clarified with the prescriber prior to dispensing the medication Monitor troublesome types of orders (titration, sedation) to ensure criteria for use are included and foowed Provide feedback to prescribers (OPPE?) and those who administer medications on the monitoring results you obtain 59 MM Areas of Focus Pharmacist s review of orders Orders faxed from physician s office and implemented without t pharmacist s review PACU orders not transmitted for pharmacist s review Preprinted order sets and protocols Clarifying orders Incomplete, inaccurate orders not clarified before dispensing A issues not clarified with prescriber before dispensing Confusion over nursing v. pharmacy role in clarification process
31 61 Improving MM Outcomes Educate and re-educate a clinical staff involved in the medication management process on the need for pharmacist s review of orders Review preprinted order sets and protocols with a critical eye to determine any potential unresolved therapeutic duplication issues Work with clinicians who administer medications to promote understanding of the clarification process Orders should be written correctly from the beginning Ideay, nursing can clarify at the time of issuance But, remember the final responsibility for clarification rests with the dispensing pharmacist Resolve these issues To ensure a successful survey outcome!

34 A Checklist for Safe Use of Medication Samples Proactively identify your organization s approach to medication samples. If you decide to aow the use of medication samples, determine the foowing: For which types of patients? On a trial basis or for chronic use? Which medications? Wi you accept controed substance medication samples? Define control over medication samples. Identify a secure location, with authorized access only. Determine who wi receive samples. Determine who wi log in samples. Determine who wi maintain the sample location, remove and properly dispose of expired medications, and oversee recaed medications. Review state laws to determine who is authorized to dispense sample medications to the patient. Review the list of aowed medication samples for compliance with the foowing: Look-alike, sound-alike medication process, if appropriate High-alert or hazardous medication process, if appropriate Applicability for weight-based dosing in pediatric patients Include the foowing in the decision to provide a patient with a sample medication: Document in the patient s medical record. Properly label the sample. Take steps to ensure no contraindications, interactions, duplications, or patient-specific variables that might affect prescribing (check with the pharmacist). Log dispensing in sample medication log book. Provide information to the patient about the medication and its proper use. Consider providing the patient with a prescription for subsequent refis, with instructions. Consider formalizing medication sample decisions for your practice site with a policy. Educate staff and pharmaceutical representatives on these policy decisions
