Magnesium Sulfate for Preecampsia, Eclampsia, HTN Crisis

Hello,
I am new to my role as Medicationa Safety Officer and I find this forum so helpful. I am reviewing our Mag. Sulfate process for Preeclampsia and Eclampsia and HTN crisis. With that said, does anyone have a best practice they follow? Would an order set be helpful to have? (We have hospitalist that may respond to rapid response team IF OB/GYN Physician not immediately avaialble). I have reviewed what ACOG practice guidelines.
I am interested to learn what other organizations are doing.
Thanks
