Smart Pump Library- Pump Verification

Hi,

When using the smart pump drug library at your institution, When you (pharmacist or designee) enters soft/hard mins and max, and/or when you make edits or updates such as adding new medications, who actually verifies the information in the physical pump?

a) pharmacist entering the soft/hard min & max?

b) nurse manager or nurse representative

c) both (pharmacist and nurse)- together or individually?

Thanks!

Ivy
