Has everyone started the <797> compliance in their IV Rooms? If so, where are you getting the majority of your supplies? Does Pharmacy buy them or Materials Mgmt? I have been contacted by Acute Care and Cardinal Health has a few of the items needed. This sounds like more things to track.
We have been compliant for about 1 year now. We get a lot of our products through Medline, Miller Products and Cardinal. We also just had our 3 year Visit from The Joint Commission and everything went well.
Can you send me any info on your supplies..contact numbers for Medline and Miller. What type of supplies are you using? Send to my email address
