Home Care Patient's Experiences and Medication Burden Related to High‐Risk Medication Use: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Practice guidelines with detailed medicine-specific protocols are needed to enhance (high-risk) medication-related care in an overall high-risk medication policy. Understanding the patient's risk experiences and communicating with the patient is important to ensure safe medication care but also to identify patients at risk for nonadherence and adverse reactions. The patient's experiences with their medication intake provide rich information for healthcare providers and should therefore be included in patient observations. Home care nurses should closely follow up on the home care patient's medication therapy with respect for the patient's autonomy.
