Introduction

Health care firms have invested in nurses as front line staff that should recognize and report any errors pertaining to medication, although the nurse is the source of the error, a contributor of has observed the error take place (Jones, at el 2016). They depend on the nurse's ability to detect the problem and make decisions to put forward the medication errors that have been discovered. Chemotherapy is one of the dangers that young Leukemia patients suffer when they are overexposed to the radioactive rays. The administration of chemotherapy is the main part of the clinical principals of oncology nursing. When the medication is not well prescribed to the patients, who are involved in the physical treatment rather the care that they are being given by nurses.

Through statistical numbers, it shows about in-patients who are suffering from the treatment suffer adverse impacts from the administrative decisions that should be well structured by the treating nurses. Human errors that happen among health care workers are at the rising trend mainly because of forgetfulness, inattention, poor motivation, carelessness, negligence, and recklessness. These factors are due to human actions that can be avoided by taking measures that will help resolve the problem. Some of the errors are unrealistic since they seem to be petty and minor to be committed with such high profile people who have taken their studies of making things right in the treatment of patients.

The efforts of reducing errors in health care sectors are mainly directed towards the prevention of such occurrences than at the management section when a mistake occurs. The management should drive a mechanism of making sure they have a well-laid protocol on how they should handle when they happen since young patients are delicate of suffering a lot in making changes in their health. Many institutions prescribe when errors happen for Leukemia patients to be reported through the institutional reporting system in such incidence.

Due to due to limited clinical experience, nursing students have high chances of making mistakes in handling patients, offering poor medication treatments. Students have been reported of a lack of knowledge about patients' diagnosis, the purpose, and correct method of administration of medication that patients are supposed to be prescribed, especially to young patients who require a lot of care while dealing with them. The administration has the knowledge of nursing students having weakness in handling patients in Leukemia since they are sensitive to the type of prescription they are supposed to be subjected to.

When a mistake has happened during the treatment of Leukemia young patients, the administration should admit and report the mistake in a good time to save the lives of the Leukemia patients. There should be a proper monitoring system that should be drawn in a cross range so that patients can have an appropriate manner that they will have to settle their factors on records and to have treatment of patients. Records do not actually portray the exact situation with regard to the occurrence of medications and errors that should be handled inappropriate manner. The administration should take a close range of all activities that take place with the institution so that they can handle all errors that may happen during service delivery to patients.

Background of the Problem

The aim of the project is to examine crossly on impacts on administrative errors that are made on young patients who are suffering from Leukemia aged between three to four years. The main consequences of medication administration errors affect a patient’s morbidity and mortality. These errors affect families of the patients, patients, and health institutions indirectly through cost implications that would have been handled without having committed the mistakes. Patients lose their lives when they are given a wrong dose that should have been protected in the early stages. The errors also bring about psychological torture that will stretch to patients who are in the same institution about the fate of their medication on the same facility.

Problem Statement

Cases of Young children aged between three and four years have been reported several on poor medications that are offered by health institutions. This project will deeply look into suggestions on how to solve the administrative errors that have become rampant in the health section. The institutions have taken treatment of patients as a normal manner on any disease without considering the age and the kind of disease the patient is suffering from. Therefore, this project will look at ways patients age three to four suffering from Leukemia have been impacted by administrative errors.

Literature review

Theoretical Foundations/Conceptual Framework and Review of the Literature/Themes

It is of great importance to comprehend the impacts of committing errors, especially when it comes to the lives of people. Health care institutions should have great regard for containing patients and meeting their conditions in Leukemia as it is a killer disease complication (Ravandi at el 2015). The administration should have a clear guideline in supporting patients positively on their health conditions that should have caused a lot of pain to patients. Patients are key stakeholders in the health section on having the treatments on having the best ways of having contained people of critical conditions such as Leukemia from disastrous ways of meeting their medications.

Literature Themes

Patients safety is a factor that has arisen concern on both society and policymakers in the administrative sectors of health institutions. Health organizations have created awareness that errors have large and unacceptable effects on both costs and public confidence in health organizations. Patients' injuries resulting from drug therapy are among the common hospital adverse patient events that should be given close checking of the institutions and the organization's feedback.

Themes of the review of the literature review include:

· Lack of proper monitoring of nursing students: When students are newbies into the field, they should be given full supervision on sensitive precautions that have to be taken by patients. Dealing with the lives of patients, it is important to have a more concern matrix of having student nurses to handle small instances.

· The fear of reporting situations. Some administrative errors get buried because of the fear that the health facility will spoil their reputation on committing fatal mistakes on Leukemia patients since the condition is sensitive, and it needs proper care.

Summary

The research will show how young Leukemia patients have been suffering from the sharp rays of chemotherapy. The young patients should be prescribed to the dosage that does not bring a big impact on killing many body cells since they are not fully developed.

NOTE: The two parts of this section use information about the Literature Review and Theoretical Foundations/Conceptual Framework from the 10 Strategic Points.

This Theoretical Foundations section is expanded upon to become the Theoretical Foundations section in Chapter 2 (Literature Review). The Theoretical Foundations and the Literature Review sections are also used to help create the Advancing Scientific Knowledge/Review of the Literature section in Chapter 2 (Literature Review).
