At an acute care hospital, a change in the process of medication administration is occurring because the unit is piloting use of a bar coding system for medication administration. 

One month after the barcoding system was initiated, the nursing unit receives information from the Performance Improvement Department identifying that a significant decrease in the timeliness of administration of antibiotics has been noted. The nurse manager has written several reprimands for the staff involved. Using concepts from the chapters and required articles, answer the following questions.

Discussion question one:

1. Is this nurse manager taking an appropriate approach to this problem? Address the concept of “Blame or a Culture of Safety”, addressing the concept and the problems with it.

Discussion question two:

2. What are the inherent risks associated with work arounds and this one in particular?
