Scrubs and Subpoenas: Medication Missteps - Marked by MedicineSUMMARY: Scrubs and Subpoenas: Medication Missteps is a podcast series that delves into the critical issue of medication errors in healthcare, a leading cause of preventable harm to patients. Through real-life malpractice cases, this series provides insights into the causes of medication errors, their consequences, and actionable strategies to prevent them. Each episode serves as a cautionary tale and a guide to fostering a culture of safety, accountability, and continuous improvement in medication management. When a routine prescription refill goes wrong, an FNP is slapped with a malpractice suit. This episode features a 20-year-old female patient permanently scarred by a seemingly “harmless” corticosteroid. We examine how dosing instructions can be open to interpretation, spelling out trouble for patients and providers. While no deaths occurred here, this case is a solemn reminder that going on “autopilot” as an NP can result in disaster. ---Nurses may be able to complete an accredited CE activity featuring content from this podcast and earn CE hours provided from Elite Learning by Colibri Healthcare.
