One of the features of electronic healthcare system is patient management. For this simple fact, electronic health records (EHRs) have become standards for care, medication safety and duty bound implementation by medical professionals. In a number of examples cited by Whalen (2018), after implementation, there was a tremendous increase in the overall number of medication safety reports involving doses and dosing volumes, productivity in service for ordering clinicians, and standardized safeguard procedures. However, Whalen (2018) revealed that there were reported cases of medication error rates for specific application areas in neonatal and pediatric subsets spanned through a period of time, which further stressed the point that, there is need to be focused on standards and guidelines on implementing electronic health records that encompasses all age context. This work is therefore contingent on this need to ensure error free interactivity across the various duties that can possibly be offered in a hospital.
