Documenting Medication Errors in EMR/EHR
I am trying to find Joint Commission, regulations or best practice workflows when it comes to medication errors. Are nurses supposed to amend the chart and document the error on the MAR? Do they leave the MAR as is and make a note. If anyone cam provide links I'd greatly appreciate it.
