When assisting with medication administration, carefully watch each resident, assuring that: The right resident is taking the right medication in the right dose at the right time by the right route.

- Medication Orders: Assure that no medication is dispensed without written orders from the prescribing practitioner.
- Documentation of Medication Orders: Assure that the Medication Administration Register (MAR, or Med Log) accurately reflects the written orders of the resident's prescribing practitioner(s). In the event of telephone order, assure that written Confirmation of Telephone Order has been sent to the physician and that a copy is maintained in medication files. Assure that corrections to the MAR are made in ink, and that correction fluid or cover-labels are not used in the MAR. Assure that any changes to the medication order are tagged on the prescription bottle, but that the prescription label is not altered.
- Documentation of Medication Administration: Assure that all medication administration is documented by the individual assisting with administration and is in compliance with all applicable Department of Health regulations.
