Asked by MegaCrocodileMaster717
The nurse would ensure that the right patient receives the right drug in the right dose, by the right route, at the right time, and with the right documentation. In addition, the nurse would review current national goals for reducing medication errors at, for example, The National Patient Safety Goal (NPSG) website: http://www.jointcommission.org/assets/1/6/HAP_NPSG_Chapter_2014.pdf. Rationale: Within our system of checks and balances, the nurse has an important role as patient advocate. It is your responsibility to detect mistakes made by pharmacists and prescribers. What measures would be most effective to reduce adverse effects of medication administration?
