As a nurse, it is important to provide both oral and written drug information and instructions to the client to ensure that they fully understand how to take the medication and any potential side effects. This also allows the client to refer back to the written instructions as needed. Leaving written information at the bedside may not be sufficient as the client may not remember to refer back to it or may misplace it. Referring the client to the pharmacy for education may also not be sufficient as the nurse is responsible for providing education as part of their role.
