Medication Reconciliation Reflection

Medication Reconciliation Reflection

During the conduction of my client medication reconciliation, I gathered information regarding two main safety concerns. The concerns included GI risks regarding bleeds and ulcerations, as well as alcohol usage. As for age-related concerns with my client and their medication usage, I noted how my client has rheumatoid arthritis, however, does not have any issues opening the bottles as they are not child locked and therefore just twist offs. The client understood the reason why they were on each medication and understood the importance of taking the medications daily. It is important for the client to understand the reasoning behind the medications they are on as it also has an impact on safe medication administration and delivery. Medications have an abundance of components, however having a comprehensive understanding of the use and any adverse effects allows for the client to be able to confidently take their medications at home. All my clients’ medications had a different mechanism of action and were indicated for different conditions. Lastly, my clients’ medications have no serious interaction that would negatively impact on them or the safety of administration.
