Abstract Body

Background: The aging of the population is leading to an increase in the number of multi-pathological and poly-medicated patients. These patients are at increased risk of adverse events due to medication errors (ME), especially if Barthel Index ≥55. The management of their medication is an added burden of stress for those who assume responsibility for their care.

Purpose: To promote the safe use of medication in the home by caregivers of these patients.

Methods: concept framework and work in groups

Presentation of psychoeducational interventions aimed at caregivers based on the identification of ME, its causes and consequences, and risk factors that favor ME.

To work in groups to discuss the effectiveness of psychoeducational interventions and how they could be implemented with patients.

Expected outcomes: To increase awareness of medication risk management in the home by caregivers. To learn about psychoeducational interventions for patients for safer use of medication adjusted to different needs of caregivers and to analyze possibilities to carry out at primary care.
