removal times to that of the previous removal, rather than to the due time of the
medication.
Too Early and Too Late dialog box warnings display at profile stations. Although
you might have administered the medication, the warning is more specific to the
formulary order. With this warning functionality, a dose time list appears after you
select the medication. This list defaults to the most current dose time, but also
shows other available dose times that have already been removed, are past due, or
are scheduled.
In an environment where more than one Nurse is caring for the same patient, it is
recommended to use medication warnings (too close) as a potential aid in the
prevention of duplicate doses being removed from the MedStation.
These settings can be overridden by settings on the Formulary tab for individual
medications.
