Purpose: The purposes of this study were to develop an integrated online and off line medication management program and to examine the program's effects of the program for older adults with hypertension residing in the community. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest de-sign was used. Participants were 57 older adults with hypertension (intervention group: 29, control group: 28). The experimental group participated in the medication management program, which included the following: verbal and video education, individual counseling, and using medication note over 3 weeks. Collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 22.0 program. The data were analyzed by Generalized Estimation Equation. Results: Statistically significant differences were found between the experimental and control groups in terms of their knowledge of hypertension and self-efficacy for appropriate medication. Conclusion: The integrated medication management program was effective as indicated in knowledge of hypertension and self-efficacy for appropriate medi-cation. Future studies are required to explore the medication management program’s effects on older adults with hypertension using more rigorous research methods. © 2023 Korean Gerontological Nursing Society.
