PharMEDium Services, LLC, announced their participation in the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF) Summit held January 26th in Phoenix, AZ.
PharMEDium's commitment to patient safety aligned with the APSF goals of improving medication safety by offering a complete line of pre-filled, pre-labeled Anesthesia syringe medications intended for use in the Operating Room. "Pre-filled, pre-labeled syringes can support the hospital in being compliant with regulatory requirements for proper labeling. In addition, this service can support standardization of medications in this critical environment. Standardized barcodes are included on all syringe labels further enhancing the ability to integrate with new technologies designed to enhance patient safety " said David Jonas, PharMEDium's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "APSF's vision and leadership in bringing together this diverse group of opinion leaders shows an unwavering commitment to advancing patient safety in the Operating Room. A consensus involving the anesthesia, pharmacy, nursing and regulatory community is exceptional in the movement to improve patient safety in our healthcare system. This summit could not have been possible without the collaborative approach by APSF," he added.
