Hi guys I need your help! Im a student at CSN and i need to interview a nurse manager/supervisor about medication errors. If you are one or knows someone who is, please share your views on the following questions: No personal info is needed, initials are fine for privacy.
1) What is the frequency of medication erros in their(your) area of responsibilty?
2)What are the nursing responsibilities when an error occurs?
3)Has the nurse(you) had to develop educational plans or give letters of counseling because of medication errors?
4)What hospital committee makes decisions concerning med errors?
5)What advice does the nurse have for new graduate nurse?
6)How are medication errors traced by nursing to find causes and improve client care?
7)How do you encourage nurse staff to decrease or avoid med errors?
8)How do you respond to a nurse who made a med error?
9) What are the common med errors you see in your area of responsibility?
I need as many replies as i can! thank you so much!!!For those who want to type their answers on MSword please email the file. Again thanks and i hope someone can help me on this.
