How Can Pharmacists Contribute to Transitional Care?
Pharmacists play a critical role in transitional care by providing medication therapy management (MTM), educating patients on medication use, and identifying potential drug interactions. They can also assist in medication adherence strategies, such as setting up reminder systems or simplifying dosing regimens. Pharmacists are often involved in discharge planning and can help ensure that patients have a clear understanding of their post-discharge medication regimen.
