Reducing Medication Errors: A Focus on the Med Pass is organized by Pedagogy Education - Online Continuing Nurse Education. This online continuing nurse education course has been approved for 3.5 CNE Credits.
Description:
Recent studies have shed light on the growing problem of medication errors within our healthcare system. It is important that all healthcare providers be familiar with the extent of the problem, both the high error rates and the potentially serious consequences.
