Compliance Of Medication After Discharge From the Hospital in the Elderly (COMADE)
Many elderly patients have multiple medications and variable dosing regimens and the ability for hospitals to properly reconcile medications between what is given on paper to the patient and what the patients take at home depends on the patient's ability to get the medications. Some patients may delay in getting their medications from the pharmacy after being discharged. For some it may be a lack of transportation, others may feel too ill to travel and may not have family members who will be able to pick up the medications.
It is for these reasons the authors of this study want to inventory the medications that an elderly patient is being discharged on during a home visit and check on the actual prescriptions that a patient has at their house the following 1-2 days after discharge.
