Solution

"I should prepare medication for only one client at a time."
- Effective: This strategy minimizes the risk of mixing up medications between clients, ensuring that each client receives the correct medication.
"The pharmacy should provide pre-filled insulin syringes that are clearly labeled."
- Effective: Clearly labeled, pre-filled syringes reduce the chance of administering the wrong medication, as they provide clear identification and reduce preparation errors.
"Next time I will not let my medication administration be interrupted."
- Effective: Avoiding interruptions during medication administration helps maintain focus and reduces the likelihood of errors.
"If I use a TB syringe for one client, I will be able to tell them apart."
- Ineffective: Using different types of syringes is not a reliable method for distinguishing between clients' medications and could lead to dosage errors.
"I will repeat the double-check of name/DOB during a high-alert medication administration."
- Effective: Double-checking the client's name and date of birth ensures that the correct client receives the medication, which is crucial for high-alert medications like insulin.
