Good Morning,

I am looking for any information that I can use to reduce medication errors in our RCF/ALF community. Something someone has tried and it worked? Articles, models, proven methods?

Thanks,

good to have you with us. enjoy the site!!!

Who gives the meds in an ALF? Are they certified or liscensed? I have seen non liscensed, non certified,healthcare workers in ALFs give meds that ony had a cursory med training program, no wonder there are so many errors.:uhoh21: Scary.
