Abstract
Although electronic health record systems have been implemented in many health settings globally, how organizations can best implement these systems to improve medication safety in mental health contexts is not well documented in the literature. The purpose of this case report is to describe how a mental health hospital in Toronto, Canada, leveraged the process of obtaining Healthcare Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Stage 7 on the Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model to improve clinical care specific to medication safety in its inpatient settings. Examples of how the organization met several of these HIMSS criteria are described as they relate to utilizing data from the system to support clinician practice and/or decision-making for medication safety.
