Abstract:
VAR Healthcare is a clinical decision support system for nurses that aspires to become even more advanced. By applying The Five Rights model, we have evaluated the status and direction of its development to bring potential lacks or barriers into the fore.

This would adhere to all the principles of the five rights model.
