Know
Your Meds: A System for Safe Medication Administration
Did
you know that over 770,000 people are injured or die
in hospitals each year from adverse drug events (ADEs)?
And
did you know that...
-The costs associated with ADEs could be as high as
$5.6 billion annually?
-ADEs can increase your patient’s hospital stay
by 8-12 days?
-Or, that nurses may be responsible for as many as 38%
of ADEs?
Obviously
ADEs are a major concern to nurses in any setting. But,
there are just too many medications to learn them all;
and new drugs are being introduced every day!
You
need a system for analyzing your patient’s medications
that is easy to use and gives you the information you
need to avoid complications.
That’s
why I've put together this special program just for
you. It is called "Know Your Meds: A System for
Safe Medication Administration;” and it uses my
personal system outlined below.
1. Know common drug classifications
2. Use memory joggers to remember pertinent information
3. Learn drug specifics from reliable sources
4. Apply to the specific patient situations
5. Determine assessment parameters
6. Evaluate the patient’s response to his condition,
medications, and tolerance of side effects.
I
stopped memorizing specific drugs a long time ago. You
can too! Using this system you will know the drug classification,
and be able to find specific drug information fast to
use at the bedside.
If
you would like to feel confident during medication administration
and decrease your risk of administering medications
in error, then you need to get this special program!
