About
Sarah Berdot is a leading health services researcher whose work centers on the safety, efficiency, and economic impact of hospital medication systems. Her major contributions lie in evaluating automated dispensing technologies, with a landmark study demonstrating that a centralized automated-dispensing system in a French teaching hospital not only improved medication safety by reducing dispensing errors but also delivered a positive return on investment after eight years of use. This work, cited 34 times, provides crucial evidence for hospitals weighing the costs and benefits of pharmacy automation. Beyond this flagship study, Berdot’s research spans medication error prevention, user satisfaction with health technologies, and quality improvement in clinical settings. Her findings have informed pharmacy practice and hospital policy, making her a key voice in the field of medication safety and health systems engineering. For students and researchers, Berdot’s work exemplifies how rigorous evaluation of real-world interventions can drive safer, more cost-effective patient care.
