Medication Adherence in Older Adults With Serious Mental Illness
Medication Adherence in Older Adults
The goal of this pilot study is to learn about how well older people with serious mental illness (including schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, major depression) follow prescribed medication regimens, and to evaluate a manualized intervention designed to enhance medication management skills and adherence, the Using Medications Effectively program. The following four hypotheses will be tested:
- Medication adherence will be associated with several variables including insight, memory, medication management skill, knowledge about medications, attitudes about medications.
- People who receive the program will have better medication adherence compared to those who do not receive the program as measured by pill counts.
- People who receive the program will develop better medication management skills compared to those who do not receive the program.
