What Are We Trying to Accomplish?
Our aim was to develop a collaborative management approach by pharmacists, nurses, and respiratory therapists to provide standardized patient education on medication use.

- Increase patients' perception of (satisfaction with) the delivery of medication education while in the hospital
- Simplify medication regimens as appropriate
- Decrease hospital readmissions
