Although the timing of aspirin administration is not as critical as thrombolytic treatment in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction, aspirin should be given as soon as possible after the onset of symptoms.1 2 We reported a low rate (3%) of aspirin administration by general practitioners in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction.3 We also found a low rate.

I have discovered that the Nurse/Med Tech are NOT documenting when they give a Vaccine or injection. The Physician is dictating that the vac./inj was given; but does not mention that the Nurse/Med Tech gave the inj etc.
' Pneumovac was given' is the documentation. ???????
Am I crazy to be concerned over this? Shouldn't they be documenting type, dosage, route etc and initialing those?
I have discussed my concerns with Dr's and Office manager, but I can not find WRITTEN documentation to support my concerns. Any information to support or dispute my concerns will be greatly appreciated. Thank you , su
