What Types Of Nursing Errors Can Lead To Injury?

Nurses play a critical role in triage, communicating information to physicians, administering medication and monitoring patients’ conditions. When a nurse fails to perform his or her duties to the level required by the profession, patients can be harmed or even killed. Nursing errors often include:

  • Failure to contact a doctor in a timely manner
  • Misdiagnosis of the symptoms of a serious medical condition
  • Failure to communicate patient complaints to a doctor
  • Administration of incorrect medication or dosage
  • Improper maintenance of a patient’s chart
  • Failure to monitor vital signs
