Medication administration is the process of providing a patient with the prescribed medication in a safe and effective manner. This includes activities such as verifying the patient's identity, checking the medication order, preparing the medication, administering it to the patient, and monitoring the patient's response to the medication. Medication administration is a critical aspect of healthcare delivery and requires careful attention to detail to ensure the medication is given correctly and does not result in harm to the patient. Research in this area focuses on improving medication safety, reducing medication errors, and optimizing medication delivery methods to enhance patient outcomes.
