It is possible to add a dispensing label, a dispensed product and ancillaries to validation exercises for each item on a prescription. The label and product will appear as items that the student can review and can have their own faults.
To enable the label and dispensed medication for an item on the script, you must tick the enable and label medication for this item option at the bottom of the edit pane for the medication.
This will expand the label and medication options where you can define what appears on the label and the dispensed product.
By default the label will display the correct patient, prescriber and medication and product dispensed, matching what appears on the label. There are options to replace the patient, prescriber and medication on the label so they do not match the prescription.
Note that these changes are considered correct until you select them as being problems when setting the outcome for the exercise. When setting up a label you need to fill in the initials and the directions. You only need to fill in the qty and repeats on the label if you wish to override what appears on the prescription.
You can also select ancillaries / Cautionary Advisory Labels (CALs) to appear for the medication. Students will be able to flag ancillaries as not being required or recommend ancillary labels that should be attached to the medication.
Ancillary recommendations can be added when setting up do not dispense faults for the prescription, covered on the creating a prescription: outcome page.
