Implications of Prescribing Drugs

/in /by

What type of drug should you prescribe based on your patient’s diagnosis? How much of the drug should the patient receive? How often should the drug be administered? When should the drug not be prescribed? Are there individual patient factors that could create complications when taking the drug? Should you be prescribing drugs to this patient? How might different state regulations affect the prescribing of this drug to this patient?

These are some of the questions you might consider when selecting a treatment plan for a patient

As an advanced practice nurse prescribing drugs, you are held accountable for people’s lives every day. Patients and their families will often place trust in you because of your position. With this trust comes power and responsibility, as well as an ethical and legal obligation to “do no harm.” It is important that you are aware of current professional, legal, and ethical standards for advanced practice nurses with prescriptive authority. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the treatment plans and administration/prescribing of drugs is in accordance with the regulations of the state in which you practice. Understanding how these regulations may affect the prescribing of certain drugs in different states may have a significant impact on your patient’s treatment plan. In this Assignment, you explore ethical and legal implications of scenarios and consider how to appropriately respond.

To Prepare

  • Review the Resources for this module and consider the legal and ethical implications of prescribing prescription drugs, disclosure, and nondisclosure.
  • Review the scenario assigned by your Instructor for this Assignment.
  • Search specific laws and standards for prescribing prescription drugs and for addressing medication errors for your state or region, and reflect on these as you review the scenario assigned by your Instructor.
  • Consider the ethical and legal implications of the scenario for all stakeholders involved, such as the prescriber, pharmacist, patient, and patient’s family.
  • Think about two strategies that you, as an advanced practice nurse, would use to guide your ethically and legally responsible decision-making in this scenario, including whether you would disclose any medication errors.

Memo

Memo

For your final project, you will work on a team project to create a grant proposal. Before you start this activity, review the Grant Proposal Project Overview to learn more.

In this discussion, search for calls for proposals (CFPs) that match your interests and potential project ideas. The best proposals start with projects, not the other way around. To get started, think about the kind of project you would like to develop. Think about what kind of local community work you would be interested in developing, what your town or neighborhood needs but can’t readily afford, or even what kind of well-defined professional research project you’d like to engage in if only you had the resources. Consider what kind of meaningful, tangible, and well-defined work you would do with the right support. 

Now, use your project idea to develop search terms and parameters. Explore these resources to help identify ideas to use for your CFP.
