Loss and Grief
___________________________
•Grief for an impending loss which takes a while to occur
•Common in cases of terminal illness when the dying person lives longer than
expected
•Particularly common when the dying person suffers or there is loss of personality or
“personhood” before death occurs
•For some people, once the loss or death actually takes place, there may be more of
a sense of relief than sadness

A. Review the patient’s list of medications at each visit.
Strategies for reducing the risk for adverse medication effects include
reviewing the medications with older adults at each visit; examining for
potential interactions with food or other medications; simplifying and
individualizing medication regimens; taking every opportunity to inform
older adults and their families about all aspects of medication use; and
encouraging older adults to question their health care providers about all
prescribed and over-the-counter medications.
My Notes: ALWAYS ask about OTC medication and how theyre taking it
daily, weekly, etc, Polupharmacy using more than 4 or more medications at
a time
