Hey Dr. Bar-Shain,
I just want to let you know that the scanners for immunizations are a God send! It makes it so much easier to care for the patients now. Being a float, I find it mind-easing to have the scanners around because it makes it easier to serve the pediatric community. I come from the . . . and we had to enter all the information manually which made it hard to be timely in giving immunizations. Thanks for being the person that streamlines this new venture and hopefully, we will see the scanners all over the Metrohealth system.

I love the new project we are piloting in Peds. Outpatient Clinic. It saves us time from putting in lot#'s,expiring dates etc. I'm glad we are able to do it first. Thanks.

Dr. Bar-Shain,
Thank you for your expertise and leadership with the Barcode Scanning (BCS) of vaccines in the OP Peds clinic.
The feedback I received from staff is that it's easy to utilize and beneficial to our patients. The implementation went smooth, so be sure to "thank" your team for their efforts. The added benefit is the time saved in documentation.
I would highly recommend taking the BCS of vaccines to all off-site locations that administer pediatric immunizations. I have mentioned this to . . .
Again, thank you for supporting the quality and safety of our patients!

Hi Dr. Bar-Shain!
I would like to thank you for the implementation for the barcode scanning for vaccinations, here in the pediatric clinic. It has been a great asset to the work flow. It has helped the nurses with getting the necessary information in the system faster, thus helping the patient experience go more smoothly. As you know, some days can be very busy and this has helped us move along faster. It is also a good tool to assist with preventing errors, as the vaccine must be scanned on the same computer the chart is open to and it will only accept vaccines that are ordered. Of course, we as nurses will still double check to make sure the information is correct, but the time saved and the convenience has been very helpful. We look forward to more tools in the future that will help the work flow.
Thanks again!
