Subject: Updates from Huddle

 

Hello everyone,

 

A few updates from huddle today:

 

  1. VANCO - Many vanco doses are being entered with a fluid selection of D5W. PSP normally makes this with NS. Please make sure you are entering in NS as your fluid choice. IF you need D5W, please choose it as your fluid AND indicate in the COMMENTS section that you want D5W.

 

  1. SCREENSHOTS - We received an email asking for screenshots of "problem orders" like "if okay" orders. To do this, go to the start menu and search for "snipping tool" and click on the application. This will give you a crosshair to select the info you want in your screenshot. You can save these to your desktop and attach them to your email.

 

 

Brandy Williams, Pharm.D.
