though, it doesn't happen very often but here's an example of a medication error and the steps to help you work through in the event of administering the wrong medication.
this is the reason why it took me so much time when medicating the patient because I'm very scared to administer the wrong medication not only it cause me a big problem but also it affects the lives of my patients.
I love love love the visuals sis. This is so educational and important. Can you do a video on med labels. What key things we need to pay attention too and how to store it. I recent got a B12 shot and doctor told me to hold my own bottle. Lol I almost cried lmfaoo #adultingsucks
The font/print size on IV medication labels that nurses give is extremely small. This has huge potential to cause medication errors. Why is nobody fixing this problem?? It's unbelievable and continues year after year to be a MAJOR problem.
While I understand the nurse may be upset with herself, no one cares what the nurse is "going through" and this should not be the nurse's first thought. Her first and only thought should be the patient and correcting her error.
I’m having an issue last month, not an error, it was a verbal order given over the phone by a doctor, later the doctor declined giving it. I actually call back verified and read back to her. Wonder what going to happen to me. I’m a new nurse
I just did error today pray for me
