Pilot Study to Improve Medication Management in Older Adults

This research study involved an initial 1.5 hour visit and 2-3 follow up home visits (each lasting 60 minutes). Participants received 2-3 home visits during which they received recommendations on strategies which will improve medication management. Level II occupational therapy fieldwork students made the recommendations, after approval from their supervising licensed OT. The OT fieldwork students provided assistance to the individual in implementing strategies, obtaining adaptive equipment at little or no cost to the individual.
