Which acronym indicates the steps involved in proper medication administration checks to avoid errors?

C.H.E.C.K.

The correct answer is A. C.H.E.C.K.

C.H.E.C.K. stands for the steps involved in proper medication administration checks to avoid errors. Each letter in the acronym represents a crucial step:

- **C: Client Information**: Verify client identification details and ensure you have the correct client.

- **H: History and Allergies**: Check the client's medical history and any known allergies to ensure safe medication administration.

- **E: Essential Information**: Review vital information regarding the medication, such as dosage, frequency, route, and any special instructions.

- **C: Communication**: Communicate effectively with the healthcare team and the client to ensure a collaborative approach to medication administration.

- **K: Knowledge**: Utilize your knowledge and expertise to double-check everything before proceeding with medication administration.

Options B, C, and D do not represent the specific steps involved in the medication administration checks like the C.H.E.C.K. acronym does.
