sometimes the obvious isn't obvious?

Safety Alert: To avoid medication errors, always label syringes with the name of the medication & dose after you draw up the dose. Deaths have occurred when unlabeled medication has been injected into the wrong client.” ~Fundamentals of Nursing book


Jeez, I’d much rather waste medication than waste a human’s life! It’s sad that this had to be inserted into our text. I would just toss the unknown medicine in the trash. just sayin.
