The Joint Commission

Taking the first step towards improving injectable medication safety practices.

Tracer methodology is a technique to assess processes, communication, and coordination of the delivery of care in hospitals. The purpose of this tracer tool is to assist hospitals in evaluating the challenges and barriers by providing injectable medications in the most ready-to-use form and help prioritize and develop corrective action plans to improve the safety of injectable medications.

Created by Joint Commission Resources, and sponsored by Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC, we helped visualize the opportunity to build a product that can track real progress.
