The nurse was very busy and unfamiliar with a new medication, but administered it anyway. Later the nurse looked up the medication. How would the nurse manager evaluate this behavior?
1. An error did occur because the nurse could have administered the medication via the incorrect route.
2. This was acceptable as long as the nurse looked up the action and side effects of the drug at some point.
3. The nurse manager was partially at fault because the nursing unit was understaffed and the nurse was too busy.
4. An error could have occurred because the nurse was unfamiliar with the medication.
