Medication Administration and Treatment Management
Admitted patients may require scheduled medicines, intravenous fluids, injections, respiratory treatments, wound care, and other medically ordered interventions.
At New Padre Garcia Hospital, medication and treatment management is coordinated by doctors, nurses, pharmacy personnel, and other authorized healthcare professionals.
Before treatment is provided, the healthcare team verifies the patient’s identity, physician’s order, medicine, dosage, schedule, route, allergies, and relevant medical information.
Patients and companions should report all medicines brought from home and should not independently give or take medication during admission without hospital approval.
