Bainbridge Health remains committed to preventing medication errors and ensuring the safety of all those who seek care. The company’s Med O.S.© Platform organizes and analyzes infusion pump data to help clinicians better understand how medications are being administered to patients and inform quality improvement initiatives.

As pediatric providers come together to share resources and best practices, care will only get better. We are thrilled to welcome such a prestigious and committed provider of children’s health to our network,” said Joseph Kaupp, CEO of Bainbridge Health.
