Primary Outcomes

Description: Days alive at home are the number of days patients spend at their usual residence - be it a house or apartment, a group home or shelter, a seniors residence, or a nursing home - or at a community residence of a relative, friend, or acquaintance without, during that day, being admitted to a hospital or visiting an emergency department or urgent-care centre. Thus, patients lose days alive at home if 1. patients go to an emergency department or urgent-care centre; 2. they become inpatients at a hospital or rehabilitation or convalescence-care facility; or 3. they die.

Measure: Days alive at home

Time: 30 Days (after randomization); 6 months (after randomization)

Description: Medication errors include mistakes in medication prescribing, transcribing, dispensing, administering, or monitoring due to preventable events or actions taken by a patient, caregiver, or healthcare worker. Medication errors include: drug omission (i.e., patient did not take a drug they were supposed to take), drug commission (i.e., patient taking a drug they were not supposed to take), duration error, dosing error, frequency error, route error, and timing error. We will record all drug errors identified and also report whether they resulted in harm.

Measure: Medication error detection

Time: Days 1, 7, 8, 15, 22 and 30 Days (after randomization in the intervention arm), 30 Days (after randomization in the standard care arm and collected on day 31)

---

Description: Any medication error that is corrected.

Measure: Medication error correction

Time: Days 1, 7, 8, 15, 22 and 30 Days (after randomization in the intervention arm), 30 Days (after randomization in the standard care arm and collected on day 31)
