Risk

ECRI/ISMP 2024 update notice says not to use HS to mean at bedtime; HS may also be used locally for half-strength, so the intended meaning should be written out.

Safer Alternative

Use "QHS" or "qhs" for bedtime; write "half-strength" when that is intended

Example

HS bedtime instruction misread or applied inconsistently
