Education-based medical errors Education-based medical errors cause catastrophic damage, yet the majority of them are preventable. Prescribing and transcribing stages are the two types where medical errors occur the most. The prescription stage holds over 71% of the total errors in the medical profession. The proportion rises significantly under the emergency section (Miller, Haddad, & Phillips, 2016). Primarily, the most significant cause of these errors is the over-reliance on verbal orders. Also, the lack of knowledge regarding the patient and the drugs administered are two significant causes behind prescribing errors. Generally, even clear and concise verbal instructions can quickly turn into mistakes if they are misunderstood or misinterpreted. Transcribing errors occur as a result of miscommunication between the person administering the drugs and the one issuing orders. Typically, such mistakes happen when blunders arise from the handwriting process. Additionally, they can be secondary to unclear or misinterpreted instructions. These slip-ups are almost exclusively due to communication failures rather than having limited knowledge of opportunities (Weant, Bailey, & Baker, 2014). Common contributing errors include a multitude of names, dosage forms, and…

HRM’S ROLE IN MANAGING HUMAN CAPITAL Assignment Overview Before beginning this Case Assignment, read the materials on the Background page to become familiar with the concepts involved with human capital. As you found in the background reading as well as with your own experiences, company management teams need to look at employees as assets rather than liabilities. They do this in many different ways, such as through the benefits offered to employees, pay scale adjustments, better medical benefits, professional development opportunities, monitoring employee engagement, and more. Managers show their employees that they are considered as important assets by the way the employees are personally treated, such as managers getting to know their employees on a personal level. Managers’ actions show employees that they are cared about as people, not just as employees doing a job for 8 hours a day and then going home. If managers do not treat their employees as valued employees, employee satisfaction will decrease and negatively impact both the employees and employers. With that in mind, how does a company know that it needs to adjust…
