title: Medication administration: are you up to date?
abstract: Pharmacists working in long-term care facilities are often called upon to educate nurses and other care staff on proper medication-administration technique. New medications, as well as new drug-delivery methods for older medications, require all health care practitioners to learn about the specific manufacturers' recommendations for each product. In addition, keeping abreast of current infection-control standards is imperative for all staff administering medications.
