Improving preoperative medication instructions and patient adherence: a collaborative, hospital-based quality
Abstract:
The goal of this project was to improve preoperative medication instructions. After baseline data were collected prospectively through standardised patient surveys, preoperative care providers were educated to convey clear, appropriate preoperative medication instructions. After the education period, patient surveys were again completed to assess improvement. Hospital-wide education effectively increased the percentage of medications with written, colour-coded, and medically appropriate instructions. Patients found the instructions clearer and easier to follow.
