status, she must first collect adequate data from the client. Assessing

reconciliation, it is important that the nurse collect a list of all the
medications the client takes in order to compare the full list of
medications against any new medications the client will take. The list
should include prescriptions, over-the-counter medications, and
herbal and nutritional supplements.
