In order to properly document it, there would need to be visual confirmation of the medication being taken, and if it’s refused the medication needs to not be in the patients access. Otherwise OP is not a reliable historian and is unfit for their job as they refuse to comply with standard of care.
I’m on clinical rotations right now , and I literally just asked the nurse next to me about this and she said OP is dead wrong.

Except when there are bad outcomes because the actual patient status doesn’t match up with MAR? And then it becomes the M&M case of the week.

Imo it depends on the patient. If the patient says they take the meds but their signs - vitals, telemetry, routine labs, PE, etc show otherwise - then it’s your responsibility to confirm or deny patient medication adherence.
I’d like to say a functioning healthcare team means that the top level providers will trust their nurse’s judgement about the patients they are in charge of.
But at the end of the day this is about treating patients and ensuring that a standard of care is met. Part of that standard is allowing for shared decision making, non paternalistic care, etc.
But again, it is your responsibility to know what is happening with the patient. It’s not really that you’re forcing the patient to adhere, it’s to confirm if they take it or not.

I tried checking the link but it didn’t work- anyone know why?

Much easier to back into a spot compared to pulling in, safer to pull out. And it doesn’t take much longer. Once you know how to do it it’s very very quick
