Medication Management
Medication management is crucial to keeping you healthy and out of the hospital. VIPcare works with you to sort out any medication contraindications to better manage your medication regimen.
Medication management is the process of overseeing the medications prescribed for a patient. It includes monitoring, reconciling medications, and ensuring patients achieve better health outcomes.
At VIPcare, your primary care provider will review all your medications – prescribed in addition to over-the-counter – and their possible side effects. They will also work with any outside prescribing doctors. From there, they will create a treatment plan and continuously monitor the safety and efficacy of all medications.
Medication nonadherence is a widely recognized and common issue among older adults. Approximately 30 percent of hospital admissions of older adults are drug-related, with more than 11 percent attributed to medication non-adherence. Medication management can help to ensure you’re taking the necessary medications without the dangers of an adverse reaction.
