Abstract
The practice of crushing tablets is thought to be widespread. Whether this is done to make swallowing a medication easier for a patient with physical difficulties or to disguise the administration of a drug, there are several legal implications for nurses. Health professionals must be very sure that their reasons for crushing tablets could be justified in a court of law.Entities:
