Medication error awareness among health care providers in Palestine: A questionnaire-based cross-sectional observational study.

Background: Increased awareness among healthcare professionals regarding medication errors and the establishment of a medication error reporting system can significantly reduce the prevalence of medication errors. Unfortunately, Palestine lacks a regulatory system for the control, reporting, and education of medication errors.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the awareness of medication errors and reporting of medication errors in the Palestinian medical community.
