You will know by now that fully support the development of practical
and appropriate systems and that I believe that existing systems should
be regularly reviewed to ensure compliance. If systems are appropriate,
practical and easy to use, compliance will follow.
But what happens when systems change? If we are not careful in managing the
change, the result will be confusion. And the impact of that confusion
could be massive.
I noticed a while ago that prescription medication is now often supplied without the product information pamphlet. This means that patients must remember the doctor's orders for taking the medication, or ask the dispensing pharmacist for the information. This might not be a problem, or it might be a practice that introduces more risk into our health care.
What do you think?
