The Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale

The Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale is a tool used to assess a person's confidence in their ability to follow their prescribed medication plan consistently. It helps identify how sure someone feels about taking their medications as directed, even when facing challenges like forgetting, feeling unwell, or being busy. By understanding these confidence levels, healthcare providers can better support patients in staying on track with their treatment, ultimately improving health outcomes. It's a way to measure the psychological readiness and belief in one's capacity to manage medication routines effectively.
