Transcription Policies

Looking for policies regarding the trancription of medications onto MARs. When an ULP transcribes meds, the RN verifies the transcription and DOSING. When a RN transcribes, are they responsible for checking the dose, as well as the second RN? What does your facility suggest? I work in a Pediatric hospital and this is becoming a major debate for us.

Thanks,
