Abstract

Medication errors are incidents that are detrimental to patients due to handling by health workers (human error) which is preventable. This study aims to analyze the application of drug administration standards by the pharmacy staff at Dr. Tadjuddin Chalid Makassar. This type of research is a combination research method (Mixed Methods) using the Sequential Explanatory model. The informants of this research were the pharmacy staff of the Central General Hospital (RSUP) dr. Tadjuddin Chalid Makassar. The results showed that the pharmacist's lack of accuracy was like a misreading of the doctor's writing. It is recommended that the hospital management conduct special training on the implementation of good drug administration standards and according to the SOP for drug administration, involving all health workers (doctors, nurses, pharmacists). Then conduct socialization of standard drug delivery SOPs and conduct regular evaluations (once a month) by including all officers related to drug administration.
