Switzerland's aging population raises pressing questions about maintaining older adults in their home environments and the problems associated with managing complex treatments requiring medication in such contexts. Few studies have examined older adults' experiences of changes in their medication on discharge home following hospitalization for illness or an accident. Similarly, few studies have evaluated the involvement of informal and professional caregivers in the medication practices used with older adults living at home. However, medication practices are complex and understanding them requires an interest in their underlying logic and the interactions that constitute them. This study will explore the feasibility of recruiting older adults and then collecting and analyzing data on their medication practices and their experiences of discharge home after hospitalization for an illness or following an accident. Furthermore, it will describe the involvement of informal caregivers and homecare professionals in these processes.
