Arizona Certified Caregiver Practice Exam

When putting pills into a medi-set, which of the following do you not need?

1. The dosage instructions

2. The medication name

3. The time of administration

4. The doctor's order

The correct answer is: The doctor's order

When putting pills into a medi-set, the caregiver does not need the doctor's order. The caregiver should have the medication name, dosage instructions, and the time of administration to ensure that the correct medication is given in the correct amount at the right time. Doctor's orders are important for prescribing medication but are not necessary to be included when organizing pills in a medi-set.
