In the current study, medication administration errors were common. Patient load, interruption, nurse's service experience, time deficit, stress, a lack of training, and the absence of guidelines were associated with medication administration errors. Therefore, ongoing training, the availability of guidelines, the presence of a good working environment, and the retention of experienced nurses can all be critical steps in improving patient safety.
