    The cat Jasper is a male cat that was given an over-the-counter analgesic which had caused him to keep getting sicker. He is one years old and weighs seven pounds, five ounces. His symptoms included vomiting and having diarrhea for several days. His lab tests showed a metabolic acidosis meaning there was too much acid in his body fluid. This meant Jasper could have been given acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen. To identify what analgesic Jasper was given we took samples of the different analgesics and crushed them. We used a melting point apparatus to find out what the melting point was and matched it with acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen. Then we used the Infrared Spectroscopy to determine the function group of the molecules to help us identify which analgesic was used. Between the symptoms, melting point, and results of the infrared spectroscopy we were able to identify what analgesic Jasper ingested.…

    Medication disposal guidelines for me as a medication aide, is to take the pill and dispose it into a Ziploc bag with coffee grounds. Then crush everything up and throw away into the trashcan. Unless it is a narcotic medication, then we have to send them back to the pharmacy and they dispose of them. If the medication comes with a label, make sure to permanent mark any information that’s could be on that bottle. Taking medication from a friend or family member could be very dangerous. If that medication was something new to you, you could have major side effects that the person that was prescribed did not have. Also, you could cause a reaction with the other medications you are taking. If a patient were to tell me that he was taking a families…

    Following Winifred’s capacity assessment it now made it possible to administer her medication in line with the guidelines and protocols both nationally and locally. She continued to attend Day Hospital and administering her medication was not a weekly routine. It was only done on the odd occasion. We would try to administer in the normal way and only when she refused did we have to do it covertly. Winifred would willingly take the Digoxin elixir and the Mirtazapine Orodispersible but would not take Lorazepam in liquid form either willingly or covertly, so the Lorazepam tablet had to be crushed and administered covertly which she accepted.…
