Question 1 of 5
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?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because medication reconciliation involves reviewing and updating a comprehensive list of a patient's medications upon admission/transfer and providing it to the patient at discharge. This process ensures continuity of care and patient safety by minimizing medication errors.
Choice A is incorrect because all medications, including those not prescribed by the client's provider, should be included in the list for accurate reconciliation.
Choice B is incorrect because verbal orders should not be used for home medications; they should be verified and documented properly.
Choice C is incorrect because medication reconciliation should be an ongoing process, not a one-time event, to account for changes in the patient's medications.
