Hey all,

Please review the two tip sheets linked below when you have an opportunity: both are especially helpful when verifying or retiming chemotherapy:

Bottom lines:

  1. Maintaining Orders as associated to the Dosing Calculator

During verification try to keep orders associated to the dosing calculator if they were ordered that way, instead of modifying doses directly:https://docushare.hhsys.org/dsweb/Get/Document-84015/Tip%20Sheet%20-%20Maintaining%20Orders%20as%20associated%20to%20the%20Dosing%20Calculator.pdf

 

  1. Retiming Oncology PowerPlans and Regimens

If you need to reschedule medication orders for an Oncology PowerPlan or Regimen that has been fully verified/scheduled, it is best to reschedule the order(s) from the MAR.

Both of these have been incorporated into the tip sheet master: https://docushare.hhsys.org/dsweb/Get/Document-80881/Cerner%20Tipsheet%20Master.pdf

Please let me know if you have any feedback or concerns.
