Effective prevention of this type of errors depends on the presence of a well-organized reporting system. The purpose of this study was to explore medication error reporting rate and its barriers and facilitators among nurses in teaching hospitals of Urmia University of Medical Sciences(Iran). Methods: In a descriptive study in 2011, 733 nurses working in Urmia teaching hospitals were included. Data was collected using a questionnaire based on Haddon matrix. The questionnaire consisted of three items about medication error reporting rate, eight items on barriers of reporting, and seven items on facilitators of reporting. The collected data was analyzed by descriptive stati

billion to $29 billion a year. Medication errors, in particular, accounted for a significant portion of the errors. By some estimates, 1.5 million preventable medication errors cost hospitals up to $3.5 billion a year. More https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4161082/ than 25,000 drug errors reportedly resulted just from look-alike and sound-alike drugs during a 4-year span. To help reduce errors and promote safety, The Joint Commission rolled out its National Patient Safety Goals program in 2002. This program was designed to help organizations address specific concerns regarding patient safety. For example, Patient Safety Goal 3 focuses on improving the safety of using medications. It mandates that healthcare organizations review a list http://www.confidenceconnected.com/blog/2011/09/20/culture_of_safety_reduces_medication_errors/ of look-alike and sound-alike medications and act to prevent mix-ups. It also expects organizations to label all medications and containers and to reduce the harm associated with anticoagulant therapy.Patient Safety Goal 8, medication reconciliation, will address ways to ensure that medications are not overlooked when patients move between the home and healthcare facilities. Down with Blame, Up with Safety To meet the challenges of reducing medical errors and promoting safe medication administration, many organizations are making a paradigm shift from a culture of error and blame to a culture of safety. In the past, facilities hesitated to disclose errors for fear of litigation. They took a “blame and shame” approach toward the healthcare professionals involved and held them personally accountable despite the fact that many patient safety problems are systems-based and beyond any individual’s control. Fear of disciplinary action was expected to maintain safety, but the same fear prevented many errors from being reported. This culture of error and blame became self-defeating: Errors were underreported, so the facilities had no opportunity to review them and improve on existing systems. To push past this culture of error, healthcare organizations have begun to openly disclose and evaluate errors in a culture of safety. With this new approach, healthcare professionals can admit and dis
