Mistakes With Medications Can Be Life Threatening
If a doctor, pharmacy or nurse makes a mistake in prescribing medicine, the results can be devastating.
- Doctors: When doctors prescribe medication, they need to be conscious that they prescribe the correct medicine and the correct dosage. The wrong medicine could interact badly with another medication and the wrong dosage could be problematic and even life threatening for the patient.
- Pharmacy: The pharmacy has the responsibility to check that the medications are in the correct dosage and will not interact badly with one another. At times, mistakes are made in the pharmacy as well that can be detrimental to the health and well-being of these vulnerable adults.
- Nurses: Medication errors can also occur when nurses make an error in writing or transcribing a prescription.
