Aim: Existing gaps in nursing curriculum particularly related to medication management such as administration and monitoring increase the propensity of nurses to commit medication errors during clinical practice. The present training program was conducted with an aim to sensitize and educate undergraduate nursing students on medication errors' related aspects. Methods: The participants were students pursuing bachelors nursing degree course (second and third year). The training "Medication errors: Role of Nurse practitioners" comprised of blended teaching methods such as theme lectures, hands on training exercises, small group case‑based learning, role plays, and nursing officer's practical experiences. The participants' knowledge and perception about medication errors were assessed at baseline (pre-intervention phase) and 1 week after program (post-intervention phase) with the help of a structured self-administered questionnaire in English language. Results: A total of 110 nursing students participated in the program. Post program there was a consistent increase in the number of correct responses to all knowledge-based questions with a significant improvement in knowledge scores from baseline [Baseline: (mean ± SD) 12.62 ± 2.33; Post-training: 18.52 ± 2.22; P < .001]. There was a positive change in the perception about medication errors among students. The participants rated the overall quality of program as excellent [66 (60%)] or very good [40 (36.4%)]. More than 90% agreed on its applicability in their future practice. Conclusions: The training was quite successful in educating nursing students on medication errors. There is a constant need to educate nurses and other healthcare providers including doctors and pharmacists on medication safety related aspects with an ultimate goal to improve patient safety.
