August 19, 2024

Hey all,

 

Nothing has changed, but due to a long-standing request we have written a Cerner tip sheet on ADULT Heparin Drip verification and discontinuation for pharmacists that may be accessed here: https://docushare.hhsys.org/dsweb/Get/Document-110540/Tip%20Sheet%20-%20Steps%20to%20Verify%20an%20ADULT%20Heparin%20drip.pdf

 

This tip sheet has been incorporated into the Formweb master tip sheet, and also the drug listing for Heparin so you can access it anytime:
