Celebrating 20 years of safe medication management at Forlì Hospital

The anniversary was marked by a conference that gathered healthcare professionals to reflect on the progress made in medication safety over the past two decades. The participants discussed how advanced IT systems have improved unit dose therapy, ensuring accurate tracking of medications from prescription to administration, even in critical care settings. The event was accredited by ECM and endorsed by the Italian Society of Hospital Pharmacology (SIFO) and the Italian Society of Clinical Pharmacy (SIFAC).

A key focus of the event was the collaboration between hospital pharmacists, nurses and physicians. Their partnership is essential for ensuring safe and effective therapy administration. The adoption of computerized prescribing has been instrumental in identifying potential errors early, thereby improving patient care. The conference also highlighted the importance of clinical risk mapping, a system that monitors prescription compliance and provides valuable feedback to clinicians. This proactive approach enhances patient safety and optimizes the management of pharmaceutical inventories.

Additionally, the event served as a platform for discussing technological and managerial advancements in therapeutic safety, involving healthcare operators, hospital pharmacists, and clinicians from both national and international backgrounds. This exchange of ideas is crucial for fostering innovation and improving practices across the healthcare sector.
