Last week, I got https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-discussion/a-feather-in-1180780.html#post10009831
This week, I made a med error. No big deal- a higher dose of a steroid than ordered- but still, a med error.
As soon as I realized my error, did the wrong thing, I did all the right things: Contacted administration, the NP, MD, monitored the patient and filled out the necessary paperwork.
Patient is fine, coworkers understanding. A humbling experience.
Ever thus...
