Helping Caregivers Manage Medications
In the second of 6 videos for caregivers and health care providers, learn what medication reconciliation means, the roles of family caregivers and health professionals, and the problems reconciliation can identify.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the United Hospital Fund’s Next Step in Care campaign collaborated on a series of six videos called “Helping Patients & Family Caregivers Take the Next Step in Care: Medication Management.” Many of the videos refer to Next Step in Care Family Caregiver guides, which are available on the Next Step in Care website.
These videos are wonderful resources for families who are managing the care of their loved ones. For the other videos in this series, see the“Managing Medications” Category on The Caregiver’s Secret.

Loved your content Elizabeth very well written. For the loved one in a nursing home, or in their own home being alone and isolated for months the toll could be devastating. Check this out Pandemic Caregiving for Elder Family Members
