What does legible mean in the context of prescriptions in WA?

  1. Capable of being read and understood by the pharmacist, nurse, or other practitioner

  2. Written in English only

  3. Printed in a specific font size

  4. Approved by the medical board

The correct answer is: Capable of being read and understood by the pharmacist, nurse, or other practitioner

Legible in the context of prescriptions in WA means capable of being read and understood by the pharmacist, nurse, or other practitioner. This means that the handwriting on the prescription must be clear and easy to read in order to avoid any errors or confusion. Option B and C are incorrect because legibility refers to the clarity of the handwriting, not the language or font size. Option D is incorrect because legibility does not necessarily mean that the prescription has been approved by the medical board, it simply means it can be easily read and understood by those who need to read it.
