I am currently in nursing school and am learning about passing meds. My instructor briefly told the class that for our pass off we need to pass meds. But we need to know which meds to put in separate cups (because they are more important). How do you determine what meds need to be separated and are more important. I was wondering if there was an easy way to know. The only example she gave us was Lopressor. And Lopressor needs to be put in a separate cup when given to the pt. Sorry if this is a stupid question! Thank you in advance!
