New nurses lack clear, accessible, and scenario-specific guidance on narcotics handling and wasting procedures, leading to unintentional errors and compliance flags.

Implied Software Gaps

• A mobile decision-support tool that provides real-time, situation-specific narcotics handling guidance to prevent procedural errors
• An integrated training module that simulates common narcotic wasting errors and corrective actions using the actual Pyxis/WOW interface
• A compliance-alert system that warns nurses when an action (like pulling a second dose) may trigger a report and suggests the correct alternative before the action is completed
