Support this regulation
 

I fully support this regulation change. It is in line with the skills of our technician staff. This would allow the pharmacist to assist with more complex, clinical needs. We have been using RFID tagging for our OR/Code carts/RSI boxes as a pilot program for over 5 years and never had any errors or safety issues.
