Medication Management
Older persons will have their medications screened to identify medication-related problems and errors that may endanger the lives who participate in health promotion programs.
This service is provided by trained staff utilizing a computer system and appropriate data collection materials working in conjunction with a pharmacist or other medication expert. The program consists of individualized screening, assessment, and alert processes to identify medication problems.
Screening
Computerized screening and pharmacist review can help:
- prevent falls;
- dizziness;
- confusion; and
- other medication-related problems for older persons living at home.
Providers may also provide medication screening at health fairs throughout CIAA’s six-county geographic service area.
