\"barcodelabels\"The power of barcode label technology<\/a> continues to become more and more an everyday tool used in almost all parts of our community life. Barcode labels systems continue to thrive because of their accuracy, ease of use, \u00a0timely feedback and ultimately they \u00a0lead to increased productivity in whichever sector you may be working in.<\/p>\n

Barcode labels in hospitals<\/h3>\n

For some time now barcode labels are being used very successfully in healthcare environments. A Nurse of doctor can acces\u00a0essential information quickly and efficiently by scanning a barcode label\u00a0on a patients wrist band in hospital. This in effect reduces human error to a larger degree, cuts down on process tasks, and captures up to date information in real time.<\/p>\n

Streamlining barcode use in Hospital environments<\/h3>\n

All businesses need absolute\u00a0accuracy\u00a0in data collection to ensure processes move forward positively and safely \u00a0– but that need is perhaps even more important in the world of health care where human lives many be at risk.\u00a0A recent study published in June 2012 in the online edition of the\u00a0Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association\u00a0suggests, however, that wrist bands \u00a0with barcode labels\u00a0still needs some work around helping nurses use the technology to optimum performance in a hospital setting.<\/p>\n

Quite clearly it is a highly powerful form of technology that can streamline hospital processes. but unless the nurse feels safe in using it, and is fully trained in all its aspects and understands the boundaries when it can be used its use will remain marginal.<\/p>\n

Five rights of patient care<\/h3>\n

As stated in Barcode news earlier this month:\u00a0Bar codes in medication administration\u00a0can, at their most basic level, help verify the \u201cfive rights\u201d of patient care:\u00a0 the right patient, right drug, right dose, right route, and right time. Getting buy-in from the nurses responsible for administering the drugs using can accelerate acceptance of the technology and improve its appropriate use.<\/p>\n
