PHARMACOLOGY FINAL EXAM REVIEW: STUDY GUIDE, EXAM PREPARATIONS - QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
PHARMACOLOGY FINAL EXAM REVIEW: STUDY GUIDE, EXAM PREPARATIONS - QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Patient teaching is important as a nurse. We need to explain to patients about self- monitoring. For example, a patient on digoxin needs to know how to check their pulse at the angle of their jaw for a full minute and know what to do if their HR is below 60. Medication safety is important. Remember the 6 rights of medication administration. If you look at the safety yellow box on page 69, it lists a lot of things to prevent medication errors. Certainly, when we administer medications, we want to do them in a quiet area, be aware of look alike sound alike drugs, make sure the order is written correctly, check label 3x.
