There are numerous reported causes of medication errors, which are fairly common in healthcare. Actually, one of the most obvious answers is <u>lack of knowledge</u>!

Because healthcare is often inaccessible and expensive, errors occur as people attempt to avoid consulting experts.

<u>Inadequate staffing</u> and <u>fatigue</u> can also be causes of errors.

In healthcare, <u>labeling errors</u> and <u>poor handwriting</u> are also common and can be reported as causes of medication errors.

If you observe, all of these are human errors. Computerized safety methods in medication administration might help reduce this medication errors. Using advanced technology might be helpful for alerting healthcare sectors for errors.
