Medication Override Revew

Hello All,

As a part of TJC 2018 revisions hospitals must have a policy that describes the types of medicaiton overrides that are reviewed for appropriateness. Would you please share how your organizaions are handling the following.

• What types of medication overrides are hospitals choosing to review?
• If you do not review non-profile ADC overrides, why not?
• What are you looking for to determine in an override is compliant?
• What steps does your practice take to address non-compliance?

Thank you,
Ashley Warnock
