Strategies to reduce medication errors
04/07/2019 Medication Safety in high-risk situations 8
3. System factors (work environment)
• Minimizing noise and workflow interruptions
• Preparing and administering intravenous preparations
• Standardization of chart design
• Electronic prescribing
• Quality information on prescribing
• Prescribing assessment tools
![Page 9: Blood Transfusion Safety Essential Health Technologies](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012419/6173a08f875aaa48dd375ba3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Select and prioritize a small targeted list of high-risk (high-alert) medications and high-risk situations for action
• Develop an action plan, which includes processes, systems, patient involvement and education and training of health care professionals
• Choose a range of sustainable strategies
• Develop a strong safety culture within healthcare
• Develop systems for reporting medication errors
Implications for countries

Assigning a numeric threshold to define polypharmacy is not always desirable.
Consider appropriate & inappropriate polypharmacy
