The task

Colin Avery is due a prescribed patch change. Review his medicine and skin records, assess him and describe the appropriate care. Casey can help and the prescriber is reachable.

What this station tests

  • Transdermal opioids require reconciliation of existing patches and application dates.
  • Direct heat can change transdermal medicine exposure.
  • An unresolved schedule is not permission to apply an extra patch.
