...with everyone in medical profession so busy these days we have to be proactive: when husband home from out of town hospital and ten new meds on top of usual meds, we were both so tired and confused; next morning for first time ever to our home a nurse from local agency came to change dressing and we told her about all the meds and confusion and she was flabbergasted at what we were expected to sort out but, mostly, she noticed that two blood thinners had been added by the hospital (new) along with two husband was already taking... she said he could have bled to death internally. She phoned the surgeon and the pharmacist. Two meds were returned to the pharmacy. The surgeon was so busy, even doing the surgery on a weekend and the pharmacy got the big order at 2pm and was closing at 6.... I feel they should have notice the 4 blood thinners... but again, so very busy. I feel that nurse possibly saved my husband's life because we would not have realized. She continued to oversee the meds til he got used to putting them in the daily dose containers.... bless her!
