An Annotated Bibliography
An Annotated Bibliography For the assignment this week, I chose the topic of Medication Errors to find three reputable sources to cite the information on with an annotated bibliography. The sources I chose from the ProQuest database because I think they have a good reputation in providing peer-reviewed material relevant to the topic I chose.

This article focused on ways used to investigate the differences in antecedents for medication errors. Severe and non-severe errors have different antecedents; therefore both the prevention and management strategies must be targeted to the specific type of error that occurred.

Accurate and complete medication histories are preferred for all patients. Collaboration between physicians, nurses and other health care providers on medication reconciliation is beneficial for a pharmacist. Attention to detail is always expected and more so during shift changes and handoffs of care, therefore reducing the risk of medication errors occurring.

Using different approaches is required to encourage medication error reporting among different healthcare professionals. Future reporting rates and approaches can be improved with further studies and investigations.
