Scan4Safety in Action: Safer, more efficient care starts with a simple scan

Across the NHS the Scan4Safety programme has increased efficiencies and enhanced patient safety through integrating GS1 standards and barcode scanning in healthcare settings. The benefits realised across the NHS include the release of 140,000 hours of clinical time back to patient care. With a growing number of Irish hospitals adopting Scan4Safety using GS1 Standards, this is the perfect opportunity to learn more about the practicalities of implementation and the benefits of getting started now.
