Medication Related Harm.

Omitted or delayed medication therapy can contribute to patient discomfort, stress, and harm. This series of reports, to be developed over 2024-2025, examines factors at different points in the medication administration process that contribute to medications not being provided reliably to support safe patient care. The first report in the series covered factors present in NHS emergency departments that influence timely medication administration. The second examines failures and improvement opportunities in anticoagulant medication administration processes.
