CertificateThis module examines the factors that contribute to medication errors and how to prevent them. Factors include the safety culture of institutions but can also be more specific to nursing, such as patient acuity, nursing workload, distractions and interruptions during administration. The complexity of medication calculations and administration methods, and the failure of nurses to adhere to policies or guidelines, are also addressed.
