Independent Double Check for Vasopressors and Vasodilators

I am seeking information on what is required for Independent Double Check for Vasopressors and Vasodilators at your facilities. We are updating our current IDC requirements and have suggestions for IDC to be required for initiation, bag change and handoff for Dopamine, Epinephrine, Isoproterenol, Phenylephrine and Vasopressin, Others have requested IDC initial, bag change, handoff only for Epinephrine and no IDC required for the other infusions.
