Bellevue, WA – Pharmacy
OneSource, Inc., software as a service provider to more than 1,300 hospitals in
the United States, announced today that Duke University Hospital has adopted
Simplifi 797 to simplify meeting all requirements of USP Chapter <797> for
compounding sites throughout the hospital.
“At Duke University Hospital we struggled with meeting USP 797 documentation
requirements in a consistent and standardized fashion across the enterprise,”
said Michael DeCoske, PharmD, Pharmacy Administrative Services Coordinator at
Duke University Hospital. “Simplifi 797 gives us a one-stop dashboard for all
documentation requirements. Its diverse functionality allows us to customize to
our site-specific practice.”
Simplifi 797 is a web-based application that automates, integrates and
streamlines the quality activities and documentation required to meet USP
Chapter 797. Simplifi 797 manages task scheduling for environmental monitoring
and automates the reporting of exceptions and compliance.
DeCoske said Duke University Hospital found the included policies and competency
checklists to be extremely useful for the many pharmacy areas that compound
sterile medications.
“The best part about Simplifi 797 is the reporting,” DeCoske said. “We can print
a simple report and trend how we are performing with documentation on a monthly
basis and pinpoint our areas for improvement.”
