HealthcareMedication Management4HighNurse$ implied
Nurse missed a medication dose because the medication reminder disappeared from the system after the due time and they relied on a manual morning cheat sheet instead of the MAR.
The electronic MAR has a due tasks list that disappears one hour after the medication is due, so if a nurse is busy or on break, the reminder vanishes and they may forget to give the medication. The nurse also uses a manual cheat sheet that is prone to error.
