Collect means gathering all relevant patient-specific information needed to make safe, goal‑concordant medication decisions. In palliative care this includes:
- current medication list (prescription, OTC, herbals), allergies and adverse reactions, and adherence issues
- medical diagnoses, labs (renal/hepatic), vital signs, and recent clinicians’ notes
- symptom burden (pain, nausea, constipation, dyspnea, delirium), functional/cognitive status, swallowing/enteral access
- goals of care, prognosis, advance directives, code status, and patient/caregiver preferences and support/resources.
