When a #medication #error occurs, the first priority is patient safety, followed by clear communication and documentation. Here's the correct process:

1- Assess the patient for any potential or actual harm caused by the error.
2- Inform the prescriber (to evaluate and provide any corrective treatment if needed).
3- Notify your line manager (as part of the governance and reporting protocol).
4- Document the incident clearly in the patient notes.
5- Follow up with local incident reporting systems, such as DATIX in the NHS.
