Abstract
Polypharmacy is a common problem affecting older adults, leading to increased medication burden, risk of falls and negative health outcomes, hospitalizations, and mortality. This community project attempts to improve medication management in older adults without increasing provider burden. A brief checklist was created to be included in provider note templates, prompting a consult with a clinical pharmacist if the patient meets criteria. Results have yet to be studied.
