Fri, 02/27/2026 - 5:30pm | Dr. Shaikh

Transitions of care from hospital to home are some of the riskiest moments in a person’s healthcare journey. Medication lists change, high‑risk medications require careful monitoring, and patients often deal with overwhelming amounts of instructions. Linda Graudins tells us how pharmacists help people on complex medication regimens navigate these challenges safely. We’ll look at a process called medication reconciliation which is a bit like medication detective work and helps pharmacists keep those potentially dangerous transitions from home to hospital and back to your home, smooth and safe.

Thu, 02/26/2026 - 4:54pm | kdrtdj

KDRT-Logo_1.jpg

9 a.m. 2/27 update: The streaming link is working again, and most KDRT shows produced this week are now available online. We're still working on underlying technical issues. Thank you for your patience, and thanks for listening to KDRT
 
Prior message posted on 2/26 follows:
 
KDRT’s latest programs are currently unavailable online. It’s a technical problem, we’re working to fix it, and we will post an update once we have solved it.
 
Shows are still being broadcast at their scheduled times, so if you’re within range of our signal in Davis, you can listen that way. You can also live-stream programs using our secondary link at http://davismedia.org:8000/kdrt
 
Programs are still being recorded, and will appear online once we get our system working properly. This problem affects only KDRT programs broadcast (or normally posted) starting Monday, Feb. 23. Shows prior to that date remain available online.
