Despite widespread improvement efforts, medication administration errors (MAE) remain a patient safety problem. In this study, nurses at one Australian hospital provided a reflection as to why they believed an MAE occurred and these reflections were subsequently analyzed using a human factors framework. Individual characteristics, nature of the work, and physical environment factors were identified as contributing to MAE and represent areas for improvement.
