This module will provide an introduction to medication safety at transitions of care for long term care providers. It will also provide techniques, tips and tools to obtain the best possible medication history (BPMH) using a systematic process. This practical approach will teach clinicians how to engage residents and caregivers in a dialogue about their medications and help them to learn how to do medication reconciliation (MedRec) by identifying and resolving medication related discrepancies.
This module is part of the 3-year initiative funded by the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care which enables the module to be without cost to those accessing.
