The Institute for Safe Medication Practices performs a watchdog function when it comes to monitoring errors in prescribing and administering drugs throughout the U.S. healthcare system. It recently reported that one hospital has had to test 4,200 patients after learning that they may have received insulin injections from insulin pens previously used on other patients.
