The Joint Commission and the FDA identify inaccurate oral and written communication as the primary barrier to patient safety and have mandated bar coding for automated medication administration. The use of such systems will aid in a 50% reduction in medical errors, prevent more than 500,000 adverse events, and save $93 billion over the next 20 years, according to the FDA.

Considering the safety benefits, it’s easy to understand why both patients and caregivers prefer hospitals that use advanced information technology. Patient safety was the focus of Hospital & Health Networks 2008 annual survey of the “100 Most Wired Hospitals,” and U.S. News & World Report’s 2008 Honor Roll of 19 of “America’s Best Hospitals.” In both reports every hospital listed uses patient identification systems from Precision Dynamics Corporation. This is a major point to consider when making a decision on products that affect patient safety.

A mother. A baby son. A teacher. A firefighter...A hospital’s approach to patient identification impacts the lives of every patient, which resonates to their families, friends, and communities. Working together, we can make a difference through systems that place the safety of people first.
