Recently I had my first med error that went through my hospital's Just Culture.
The error was that I missed a leukemic patients dose of prednisone. This was apart of the patient's oncology treatment.
Today my clinical manager informed me that outcome of Just Culture was that I be written up. I She further reviewed the unit policy of missing a medication.
I feel terrible about this whole situation. I worry for my patients and I want to do well as an RN. I've reached a year of RN experience and was just starting to feel confident.
Just seeing if anyone has insight on this situation and how big impact a right up will have on my career. How will this effect getting hired later on?
