How Can Caregivers Ensure Safe Medication Administration?
Caregivers play a vital role in ensuring the safe administration of medications: - Clear Instructions: Ensure that the healthcare provider gives clear, written instructions. - Proper Measurement: Use appropriate measuring devices, like oral syringes, rather than household spoons. - Adherence to Schedule: Follow the prescribed dosing schedule strictly. - Observation: Monitor the child for any adverse reactions and report them immediately to the healthcare provider.
