- Abstract
The article describes the implementation of an electronic medication management system (eMMS) in an Australian teaching hospital. The success of eMMS is said to hinge on a positive workplace culture, acceptance of the major effect on work practices by all staff, and timely system response to user feedback. Other factors critical to a successful implementation are training and support for clinicians, a usable system, and adequate decision support.
