Medication errors don't usually happen because staff don't care - they happen because systems fail, steps get skipped, and people get rushed. This practical, easy-to-understand guide gives Certified Medication Technicians the real-world tools to prevent them: the ten root causes of medication errors, the Six Rights and Three-Way Check, high-risk medications and residents, exactly what to do when an error occurs, and a quick-reference card for the medication cart. Written for CMTs in every state by a Registered Nurse and Delegating Nurse with years of hands-on experience in assisted living facilities. A supplement to - not a replacement for - your facility's policies, MBON standards, and your Delegating Nurse's clinical guidance.
