Summary

Medication administration practices during patient hospital stay tend to improve patient autonomy. Several studies have concluded that self-administration of medication programs in hospital centers have a beneficial effect on patients' knowledge of their medications, their compliance and the safety of administration. Nevertheless, few studies have been carried out in France on this subject. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the change of nurses administration practices from the administration of each drugs to supervision of self-administration by the patient under a self-administration program.
