From the Editor

Susan Sheehy, RN, Editor-In-Chief of PEPID RN offers these comments about PEPID's impact on clinical practice:

"I have authored and edited a number of textbooks, and because of the time it takes to production, it is often difficult to include the latest, most cutting-edge information in a text. PEPID is updated monthly, providing us with the opportunity to have the most current information at our fingertips. Because we care for a high volume of complex patients, we need a reliable resource to help us with critical decision-making. This will also result in guarding against clinical errors. I like to call PEPID my peripheral brain!"

PEPID reinforces a nurse's vast knowledge base. We all check and re-check the information we need to react to our patient's problems and to plan care. Having PEPID RN at the point-of-care, encourages you to always include the verifying step of checking unfamiliar orders against a current, comprehensive reference and also to double check information that is familiar (but not second nature) in your daily practice.

For example, with more than 1400 medication files, PEPID is especially helpful in ensuring safe and informed medication administration and teaching. Common incompatibilities and hard to remember equations and formulae are standard in PEPID's extensive database.

Having PEPID is like having access to a team of skilled and experienced physicians and nurses to consult with, available at any necessary moment, throughout your busy day.
