Prescribing medication

Prescribing medication is part of a logical deductive process based on comprehensive and objective information that involves the patient/client as a partner in management decisions. Therefore confidence in prescribing is achieved through the use of detailed knowledge of pharmacology applied to individual patients. This assessment task provides an opportunity to apply the background knowledge required for prescribing, and explore the pharmacology and implications of medication use. The task also provides nurses with the opportunity to acquire advanced knowledge to ensure patient safety when administering medications prescribed by others.
