A physician writes an order for a medication to be administered QID. How often should the client receive the medication?

A. Room number is not typically considered one of the "rights" associated with medication administration.

B. Prescriber is not typically considered one of the "rights" associated with medication administration.

C. Documentation: documenting the medication administration is essential for accountability and continuity of care.

D. Dose: verifying the correct dosage is another crucial "right" to prevent medication errors.

E. Assessment: assessing the client's condition and suitability for the medication is also a vital aspect of medication administration.

A. Regular insulin should be withdrawn first to avoid contamination of the regular insulin vial with NPH insulin. However, air should be injected to the NPH vial then into the regular insulin vial before withdrawing regular insulin.

B. Injecting air into the vials before withdrawing insulin is correct, but regular insulin should be withdrawn first.

C. Injecting air into the vials before withdrawing insulin is recommended. Air should be injected into NPH vial then into regular insulin. Regular insulin should be withdrawn first followed by NPH to avoid regular insulin being contaminated by cloudy NPH.

D. Injecting air into the vial and withdrawing NPH insulin immediately does not follow proper insulin administration technique.
