Medication errors can occur easily and happen far too frequently. Nursing shortages and heavy workloads add to a nurse’s stress in completing her/his tasks on time. All of the following are ways to help ensure medication errors do not occur, except:
  1. Right dose
  2. Right patient
  3. Right time
  4. Right nurse
Explanation
Answer: D - The four “R’s” that can help ensure medication errors do not occur are right dose, right patient, right time and right drug. If a nurse is diligent in taking the time to ensure all four of these steps, then it is likely that medication errors, on the part of the nurse, will not occur.
