Safety Tip: Closing the Feedback Loop on QRE Reporting

Reporting QREs is a critical first step in documenting risks and harm. QRE reports can lead to actionable improvements in:

▪️ workflow
▪️ modified technology/software
▪️ the pharmacy's workspace design
▪️ quality of patient care

Closing the feedback loop is a positive step to increase employee engagement and improve the safety culture.

Does your Pharmacy have a plan to inform each employee of the changes that are made, and when these were the result of QRE reporting?

For more information, or to get your Medication Safety and Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) program started, visit the APMS site at www.medicationsafety.org or give APMS a call at (866)365-7472.

Near misses deserve attention, too.

A medication error that never reaches the patient still provides valuable insight into your workflow.

Reviewing near misses helps pharmacies identify risks early and strengthen patient safety before harm occurs.
