Abstract | Background: Medication is used to treat infectious diseases, stop effects from chronic diseases, and ease pain. But drugs can also hurt you if you don't use them the right way. Mistakes can happen at home, in the hospital, at the doctor's office, or in the drugstore. Medication Administration Errors (MAEs) are a common type of error. (Adam et al, 2020) Aim: This study aims to examine, from the nurses' perspective, the factors that contribute to medication errors in the Intensive Care Units of Jordanian government hospitals. Method: Employing a narrative qualitative approach, this study utilized a specific methodology and was conducted in two government hospitals in Jordan. Three distinct data collection methods were employed: face-to-face semi-structured interviews, document review, and observation. The primary data collection tool involved face-to-face semi-structured interviews with a sample of 24 participants, specifically nurses, across the two hospitals. The data gathered from the case studies underwent thematic analysis, employing a framework analysis technique and guided by established principles. Finding: This study demonstrate the prevalence of prescribing medication errors and may identify the most significant factors contributing to error which is classified as active failure, impact of errors, error-producing condition, and medication safety strategy. Conclusion: The investigation utilized a qualitative research methodology, 24 nurses from government hospitals were interviewed, focusing on medication errors. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, and data were analyzed using NVivo software. Nurses perceive medication errors as complex challenges with multifaceted origins, emphasizing the need for risk mitigation strategies. Factors contributing to errors encompass facility conditions, substance properties, personnel actions, and patient factors. Addressing medication errors requires heightened situational awareness and diverse data collection and analysis methods. This study delves into nurses' perspectives on prescription error management.
