The best choice is to inform the nurse at the long-term care facility what medications the client is prescribed, and document that this information was provided. This ensures continuity of care and prevents any potential medication errors. The client's medication orders can then be reviewed and continued, adjusted, or discontinued as necessary by the healthcare team at the long-term care facility.
