As patients transition between health care settings, they are at an increased risk of adverse events and medication errors as a result of medication changes and miscommunication. Pharmacists have traditionally provided transitions of care (TOC) services, including patient education, in a face-to-face manner with the goal of reducing medication errors and enhancing patient safety and understanding. However, changes in care delivery models, a burdened health care workforce, and diminishing resources necessitate innovative approaches for the provision of patient education within TOC. Pharmacists should consider novel approaches to expand scope, reduce barriers, and creatively use existing resources to optimize patient education in TOC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
