Enhancing primary care for older adults: the safety, efficacy, and adherence (SEA) team-based care model to reduce adverse medication outcomes

The SEA model provides a comprehensive framework for addressing the complex needs of older adults by focusing on medication SEA. Two vignettes, one clinical and one organizational, demonstrate the practical application of the model in patient care and implementation science. By improving interdisciplinary collaboration and addressing social and behavioral factors, in home safety for medications, this model aims to reduce polypharmacy and hospitalization. Based on existing evidence-based frameworks, this model would benefit from future studies to validate its effectiveness in diverse settings.
