給藥安全是病人安全的核心。根據《國家病人安全目標》（National Patient Safety Goals），護理師在給藥前必須使用兩種方式確認病人身份，這是防止給藥錯誤的最基本且最重要的防線。這兩項識別符必須是病人的專屬資訊（如姓名、出生年月日），而非房號或床位，因為病人可能因為轉床或調整而導致資訊不符。
Medication safety is central to client safety. According to the National Patient Safety Goals, before administering medication the nurse must use two methods to verify the client's identity; this is the most fundamental and important defense against medication errors. The two identifiers must be specific to the client (such as name and date of birth) and not the room or bed number, because clients may be transferred and these data may not match.
