 Objective: To consider the ideal way to support community-dwelling older adults to take medicine correctly, we compared the attributes of subjects in good and bad medication adherence groups and then analyzed the characteristics of the medication self-management strategies used by these two groups.

 Methods: We surveyed 55 community-dwelling older adults with a questionnaire to examine their background and medication adherence. Their medication self-management strategies were identified through observation and interviews.

 Results: Of the 55 subjects examined, 19 (34.5%) had good medication adherence, while the remaining 36 (65.5%) had poor adherence. All subjects were found to have devised some form of medication self-management strategies. In the medication instructions and setup, there were 13 medication self-management strategies, such as “memorizing medication instructions”; in medication storage, there were ten strategies, such as “storing medicines scheduled for the week in the place where the person spends most of his or her time”; and in the measures against forgetting timely medicine intake, there were nine strategies, such as “going from eating to taking medicine in a series of steps.”

 Conclusions: The self-management strategies were tailored to the individual's daily life. Therefore, it is important to understand one's daily life and medication self-management strategies before providing medication support.
