When at work one needs to focus on the duties assigned, paying attention on the basic fundamentals. Identification, double checking and avoid interruption. Eye opening, and a refreshing reminder of basic fundamentals of the profession.
Wow the video was very educational an eye opener and it shows how a slight mistake be dangerous,the principles of medication administration not followed,disruptions that happened.
This is informative and staff nurse allowed the other nurse to go out of the room without double checking medication with her and too many interruption
It is important to avoid interruptions, and also to know the patient allergies... After giving medication a nurse should monitor the patient for possible reactions.
Better to be safe than sorry.. the lesson is that you can never be to carefull when it comes to medication and your patient. Better to control medication with RN or doctor.
A Nurse didn't follow five rights for administration of medication ,which is very important ,she just introduced herself ,but no Identification of the patient, Could happen maybe she gave the right medication but on the wrong patient,also checking with a second person is very important because some Dr's hand writing are not clear
This comes to show that even in the midst of just a slight distraction.mistakes can be fatal.she did not do the proper checking and she was interrupted in the process and also did not check for reaction there on after.
The font/print size on IV medication labels that nurses give is extremely small. This has huge potential to cause medication errors. Why is nobody fixing this problem?? It's unbelievable and continues year after year to be a MAJOR problem.
Wrong medication has been given .nurses don't greet the patient she interrupted the other nurse .allergies has not been checked and patient was allergic to penicillin.

What I do not understand is why are doctors not being made responsible for medication errors just as nurses?
Co checking is key in administration of medication and avoiding destruction at all times..…sad for this patient.

Doctor refused to co_check with the nurse. It lead to the wrong giving of medication.
