Which of the following must be included in a report of a medication occurrence

  1. Date of birth of the resident

  2. Color of the medication

  3. Name of the person who made the error

  4. Weather conditions at the time

The correct answer is: Name of the person who made the error

In order to report a medication occurrence accurately, you must include the name of the person who made the error. This option is the most relevant and essential piece of information for correcting and preventing future errors. The other options are not required for a thorough report. Including the date of birth of the resident may be useful for further investigation, but it is not a critical component of the report. The color of the medication is not relevant to the occurrence and is typically used for identification purposes. Lastly, the weather conditions at the time may have no impact on the medication occurrence and would not provide any valuable information. Therefore, these options are not necessary to be included in the report.
