Ongoing Training: - Incorporate findings from audits and incident analyses into ongoing training sessions. - Update training materials and competency tests promptly when regulatory guidelines change or when new risks are identified. • • Regulatory Compliance: - The Compliance Team monitors changes in regulations affecting medication management. - Updates to the policy are disseminated to all staff within two weeks of receiving new regulatory guidance, ensuring compliance at all times. Documentation Reviews: - Regular reviews of Medication Administration Records (MARs) are scheduled to ensure that all entries are complete, accurate, and comply with the established protocol. - Discrepancies or incomplete documentation trigger immediate retraining and targeted reviews. •
