We Need Teamwork When It Comes to Medication Safety

We all have a role to play in MedRec. By creating comprehensive lists of a patient’s medications every time they enter or move within our system, and then documenting and sharing that list with everyone involved in their care, we help keep our patients safe.

What Can You Do as a Healthcare Provider to Help With Medrec?

You can help patients understand how they can be a part of MedRec. There are many tools to support patients in keeping track of their medications.
