Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Charting after you give the medication ensures that you are documenting accurately and reflecting the current medication administration status of the patient. Charting before you give the medication could lead to inaccuracies if the medication was not actually administered. End of day charting or beginning of day charting may result in delayed or incomplete documentation.
