Question: 1 of 45Ati lpn fundamentals proctored exam
A nurse is reviewing the components of medication reconciliation with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Explanation
A. Medication reconciliation must include all medications the client is taking—prescription, over-the-counter, herbal supplements, and vitamins—not just those prescribed by their provider. B. Reconciliation is an ongoing process that should occur at admission, during care transitions, and at discharge, not just once on admission. C. Nurses should verify and communicate home medications to the provider, but only the provider may write or authorize orders; nurses do not write verbal orders based solely on the client’s home regimen. D. Providing a comprehensive, updated medication list at discharge ensures continuity of care and helps prevent errors after the client leaves the facility.
