N2 - Medication regimens in long term care are intermittently revised through the participation of multiple clinicians, different institutions, through time. Such revisions have potential to result in inconsistencies and errors. Periodic revisions are undertaken to address these. We examined these review tasks, as performed by clinicians, from a broad professional spectrum that consisted of nursing consultants, a nurse care manager, a pharmacist and a pharmacy technician.
