Objectives: Attention has been placed on the process of distribution of inpatient medications in order to promote patient safety. This process includes prescription, dispensing and distribution of drugs to nurses’ stations. In order to manage the delivery process, guarantee correct delivery, and reduce errors in identifi cation, the study hospital introduced a barcode system into this process. Methods: Research instruments were sent to a sample hospital in Taipei which then recruited those who had experience in using such a barcode system in their daily work to complete the instrument. Multiple Regression Analysis and analysis of variance were usedto analyze the hypothesized relationships between the constructs in the research model. Results: Experience of the personnel involved in this delivery process was the key factor in determining the success of this model. Conclusion: The results and implications of this study may be considered as a reference for future medical quality management. |
