 Too many meds. Too little guidance. Too much risk.A nurse and a pharmacist break down medication safety for kids and families. In this episode of Nurse Rosa’s INsights, I’m joined by Jena Quinn and Lyle Mioduszewski, co-founders of Perfecting Peds, for a powerful conversation on pediatric polypharmacy and medication safety. Dr. Quinn is an expert pediatric pharmacist with more than 14 years of experience in safe medication management and direct patient care. She developed the vision for Perfecting Peds from her deep clinical background, her love for children, and her commitment to optimizing medication profiles for medically complex pediatric patients. She has led and managed clinical consulting programs across diverse care settings and is also a Board-Certified Pediatric Pharmacist. Lyle Mioduszewski brings a blend of clinical nursing as well as healthcare industry experience inform him in leading Perfecting Peds as company president. Together, Jena and Lyle share how a pharmacist-led, team-based approach to pediatric medication management has led to a 44% reduction in hospitalizations, proving that addressing polypharmacy isn’t just good practice - it’s lifesaving work. We explore why pediatric medication management is fundamentally different from adult care, the risks of weight-based dosing errors, gaps in caregiver guidance around over-the-counter medications, and how unified patient records can dramatically improve outcomes. This episode also highlights the evolving role of pharmacists as providers and what’s possible when clinical expertise and business strategy come together with purpose.
