Benefits of Processing Degrades
"Completing medication degrade tasks helps secure patient safety by ensuring all medications are accurately coded, thus preventing potential prescribing errors."
Appropriate Clinical Action
It is pivotal that clinicians handle medication and allergy degrade tasks due to the clinical expertise required, ensuring that all treatments are safe and appropriately recorded. Always ensure that your changes are clinically accurate before filing them in the patient's record.
