The PERTS form is our version of an Incident and Accident report we complete for our Risk Mgmt Dept. Some reasons to complete the form would be falls, med errors, equipment failure, etc.

Graham Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 10:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Medication Errors We use the point system for each med error and counsel according to point grid. We also use the cumulative method w/subsequent errors which is reviewed on an annual basis at time of performance review. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Holly McGran Sent: Thu 3/25/2004 10:09 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Medication Errors Brenda - do you use the point system with each medication error or is it cumulative with subsequent errors a nurse makes? Thank you in advance. Holly QI in CT ________________________________ From: Brenda L. Graham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brenda L.
