MEDS Publishing Takes Action
BURTONSVILLE, Md.--(BW HealthWire via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Apr 19, 2001--MEDS Publishing announces the release of Dosage and Calculations Made Easy, a software learning system that builds analytical and procedural skills that are fundamental to nursing.
Nurses and nursing students alike learn to visualize medical math.
Dosage and Calculations Made Easy is a valuable tool that helps students and practicing nurses to solve problems, think critically and prevent medical mistakes. They strengthen their knowledge base in all aspects of medication administration and round off a complete curriculum through the mastery of medical math.
More than a year after the Institute of Medicine (IOM) reported that as many as 98,000 Americans die each year as a result of preventable medical errors, the healthcare industry continues to scramble for preventative strategies.
''Understaffing, fatigue, and greater expectations of the nurse are the norm today,'' said Patricia Hoefler, RN, MSN, and president of MEDS. ''That`s why it`s so important to approach the issue of safe nursing from the ground up in nursing school, and follow through to the people on the front lines.''
Dosage and Calculations Made Easy engages the user through voice-assisted tutorials, interactive practice drills, and assessment exams. Features include ''look-alike/sound-alike'' drugs, colorful graphics, and lively animation. Each section is flexible and self-paced, enabling both the student and the health professional to fit the tutorial into a tight schedule.

''In every patient care setting, the nurse must interpret orders, calculate conversions, and administer dosages efficiently and accurately. We believe Dosage and Calculations Made Easy equips them with the confidence they need to deliver quality care. That, in the long run, saves lives.''
