• Adult calculations: the calculation will be rounded to the nearest tenth Drug Calculation safety considerations:
• Examples:
  • 5 must be answered as 0.5
  • 5.0 must be answered as 5
• To promote safety, a zero must be placed to the left of the decimal point in answers that are less than one. No zero is allowed to the right of the decimal point in answers that are whole numbers. Labeling is not necessary
