What the published guidance describes for the four things a nurse does with someone in an attack: look, give the medicines safely, teach, and write it down. Every figure here is quoted from the literature, not from local practice.
ScopeThis describes what guidelines, drug labels and published studies say. It is not a care plan, and it does not replace your own service's protocols, your scope of practice, or the prescriber. Where the literature gives no answer, this module says so rather than filling the gap.
