Project Title: Brain Safe

Brain Safe is a research study approved by IU Health that is focused on providing educational materials about medication safety. Participants will have 3 meetings by phone over the course of the study, an initial Baseline, a ​6 month midterm, and a concluding​ 12 month follow up. Over the course of the study, participants will complete assessments and use a phone app to help track medication​. Through careful tracking, we can help care providers and patients make better decisions about their medication choices​. Participants of this study are able to fully participate in this study from the comfort of their homes via phone app and phone calls. Due to the fact that participants will not be engaging researchers in person, many methods are employed to reach out to participants when a follow up is needed. These include mail, email, and phone calls. In this presentation, we will explore 3 different formats of participant communication that were employed in this study and the results yielded by these methods.
