Administration "routes" updated

Stemming from several requests from the medical imaging department, the Pharmacy team has made several adjustments to the available "routes" for various medications and contrasts commonly used in our departments.

You should be able to select an appropriate "route" of administration for every item that currently lives on the medical imaging order set. If you have never used the order set to enter orders for contrast or medications, you should know that it is available. Instead of using "order entry" you would use the "order set" activity and use order set 1512. This opens a pick list of all the commonly used contrasts/medications in the department. It is just an alternate way of finding the item you are searching for.

If you have questions about that, contact your super user or feel free to comment here on the blog.
