Bunni D, Walters G, Hwang M, et al. Oncology patients’ willingness to report their medication safety concerns from home: a qualitative study. Support Care Cancer. 2024;32(6):352. doi:10.1007/s00520-024-08565-5.
Medication administration in the home can be prone to error, particularly for patients with complex medical needs. This qualitative study explored oncology patients’ willingness to report medication-related safety events after a care transition back home. Participants highlighted the importance of the patient-clinician relationship and promoting patient activation (e.g., confidence, engagement) in self-management activities.
