Medications that require dual check/signoffs

Hello safety gurus,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to see if anyone is willing to share information regarding medications that require dual checks/signoffs at your respective institution.

A few things would love to receive include:
1. The included medications or medication class
2. If you are willing to share your policy/policies
3. Which EMR you have and any EMR specific build around this you may have performed
4. Do you just involve nursing or is pharmacy included as well

These are just a few things I can think of. Would love your insight!

Thanks
