Correct answer: C — Correct the selection, record the near miss and reinforce checks
Look-alike sound-alike errors should be corrected before supply and recorded as near misses to support learning. This makes correct the selection, record the near miss and reinforce checks the single best answer in this scenario. The other options would either miss the key safety issue, delay appropriate review, or fail to meet the relevant clinical or professional requirement.
