MDS-Med Guide. Assessing medication effects using resident assessment data.

The MDS-Med Guide is a unique new clinical tool developed to integrate patient assessment data with medication monitoring in the federally mandated resident assessment process. The guide correlates medication effects with a patient's physical, functional, and psychosocial status; identifies medications that may cause or aggravate common geriatric problems; and facilitates incorporation of medication information into the patient's care plan. The information provided in the guide is applicable to all geriatric patients receiving medication therapy to treat chronic diseases and conditions and should be of benefit to geriatric nurses in all practice settings.
