Abstract

To explore the effect of optimizing the chemotherapy drug allocation process in the intravenous drug allocation centre on improving the quality of nursing management in hospitals. In order to improve the efficiency and quality of nursing care, the hospital optimized the chemotherapy drug allocation process and personnel in the hospital's intravenous drug allocation centre. After optimising the dispensing process, the time to review prescriptions and the time to schedule and dispense drugs in the IV drug dispensing centre was significantly shorter than before, P<0.05; after optimising the dispensing process, the incidence of unqualified prescriptions and dispensing errors in the hospital was significantly lower than before, P<0.05. The satisfaction of nursing staff was significantly higher than before, P<0.05. Optimizing the chemotherapy drug dispensing process in the intravenous drug dispensing centre can improve efficiency and quality of care and reduce the occurrence of errors, thus helping to reduce nurses' work pressure and improve nurses' satisfaction.
