Opioid Room of Horrors: a simulation approach to strengthen drug administration safety
The opioid RoH is an effective training to refresh and emphasise the rigorous application of the 5R rules and the double-check procedure to reduce MAEs. Additionally, this simulation showed persistent gaps such as patient identification and double-check failures, highlighting the need to strengthen safety practices through continuous training and institutional-level system improvements in medication administration safety.
