NICU Safeguards

For hospitals that serve both adults AND pediatric/neonatal populations. What safeguards (i.e. pharmacist double check, NICU preparations only in syringes, special labeling, etc.)do you have in place to help reduce pediatric/neonatal medication erros??

Any particularly helpful references I should review other than ISMP for improvement ideas?

Thank you in advance!
