口頭醫囑（Verbal order）在急救或特殊情況下使用，但存在極高醫療錯誤風險。安全護理的核心原則是「讀回確認」（Read-back），護理師必須在寫下醫囑後，完整地向醫師複述一次，以確保雙方認知一致。這是 JCAHO（美國醫療機構認證聯合委員會）規定的病人安全目標之一，能有效減少藥物治療錯誤。
The read-back method is a critical safety protocol for verbal orders to ensure accurate communication between the nurse and the provider. The nurse must write down the order and then verbally repeat it to the provider for confirmation before administration. This process minimizes the risk of misinterpretation and medication errors mandated by patient safety standards.
