How often should a CRMA review the medication administration protocol?

Regular reviews of the medication administration protocol are essential for ensuring that care providers stay informed about the latest best practices, safety guidelines, and regulatory changes in medication management. By regularly revisiting these protocols, a CRMA can identify any updates or modifications that need to be implemented, which can be influenced by new research, changes in medications, or shifts in the overall healthcare landscape.

This ongoing process is critical to maintaining high standards of care and minimizing the risk of errors in medication administration. Regular reviews also support continuous professional development and help prepare the CRMA to handle any changes or emergencies that may arise, ensuring that they are always equipped with the most current information and practices for administering medications safely and effectively.
