The primary objective of this session is to provide individuals with the knowledge they require to manage medication safely and confidently, to minimise the harm caused by costly errors.
Once staff have completed the Medication Management training course, they will understand the legislation surrounding medicine, be able to identify risks relating to medication management, recognize different drugs, and know how to respond to a major adverse drug reaction. Equipping staff with this knowledge is vital to patient health and safety; it could even save lives.
Some key areas that are covered in our medication management training session include:
- The legislation surrounding medication management.
- Medication documentation and record-keeping.
- Risks relating to medication management.
- Prescriptions.
- Medication management reporting and escalation procedures.
- Medication rights.
Completing this training session gives individuals a sound understanding of how to safely manage and administer medication and protects employees, patients, and organisations from dangerous and costly errors or mistakes being made.
