Mental health and health care social workers need to be aware of several issues that can assist in monitoring their clients who are taking medications. Social workers can empower clients to gain the confidence to ask questions of the prescriber and to verify that the medication that has been prescribed is the best one for them. Often clients rely on the professional judgment of their physicians, pharmacists, and other professionals who prescribe and dispense medications, but forget that the prescribers cannot always account for the reaction a client may have. It is critical that professionals listen carefully and encourage clients to express what they are experiencing. Clients need to be reminded that ultimately they must be aware of their own bodies and reactions that may occur. It is the client that will reap the rewards or suffer the consequences of the medication. If a client is well educated and aware on the properties and possible side effects of medications he or she can be the first to identify adverse reactions.

However, if the fear factor is still present, safety and loss prevention professionals may want to consider utilizing the OSHA Web site (http // www.osha.gov).
