Pre-printed orders for prescribing take-home cancer drugs may help reduce errors that can sometimes occur with handwritten and verbal orders. They are protocol-specific forms that simplify and standardize the prescribing process. Learn more about the recommended criteria of a pre-printed order.
If you would like information about customizing the pre-printed order forms for your centre, please contact the Drug Formulary Team at drugformulary@cancercare.on.ca.
These pre-printed orders are available as a reference for the development of institution-specific pre-printed orders. The person using the order is responsible for adapting the materials accurately. Prescribers must use clinical assessment and judgment to make sure that the treatment and doses are appropriate for their patients.
