Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following occurrences needs to be reported within 24 hours?

Allergic reaction to medication

Death of patient/resident that is required to be reported to the coroner (unexplained cause or under suspicious circumstance)

An allergic reaction to medication (A) is important to report, but not necessarily within 24 hours unless it requires immediate medical attention. Annual fire drills (C) and scheduled maintenance of medical equipment (D) do not have to be reported within 24 hours as they are routine occurrences. However, a death of a patient or resident (B) is a serious and urgent matter that needs to be reported within 24 hours, as it may require an investigation by the coroner. Reporting this promptly allows for any necessary action to be taken in a timely manner.
