Medication errors have the potential to cause severe patient injury, extended hospital stays, or even death, they represent a substantial clinical practice issue for nurses. This problem arises when patients receive the wrong medications, doses, or administration routes due to errors in prescription, dispensing, or administration. A number of things, including poor communication between medical professionals, a lack of expertise or training, ineffective systems, and human error, can result in medication errors.
Rationale for Choosing This Topic:
Medication errors have a broad influence on patient safety and healthcare outcomes, I made the decision to address them in my clinical practice.
