Hey everyone, gots a question for you. Anybody familiar with having to provide a medication reconciliation for patients being discharged from your EDs? I was just informed by my nurse manager that we have to devise a system to provide patients with a med rec that has all of their meds on it not just what is being added or changed. This is going to be time consuming as all hell if I have to write or type out every medication and dosage for every patient that comes through our ER as we have no unit secretary, just 2 RNs and a doc. This came to us via. a JCAHO representative.
Any and all advice or ideas are more than welcome.
