Safe medication administration is about more than following the right steps—it also means recognizing when something may not be right.

Join Deb Maloy, RN, CDDN, for a practical educational webinar focused on medication safety and recognizing potential cardiac concerns when supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Participants will explore general medication administration safety expectations, cardiac risk factors, red flags during medication administration, and early warning signs and symptoms of potential cardiac events. Through practical examples and case studies, Deb will also review appropriate response protocols that support individual health and safety.

This session is designed to strengthen medication safety knowledge while helping nurses, quality professionals and others responsible for training or supporting unlicensed developmental disability personnel promote safer medication administration and better outcomes for the people they support.
