Forwarded on behalf of Karen O’Brien, Regional Chief Pharmacist, and representatives from multi-sector working group, NHS North West  

“We are pleased to launch “An Interactive Guide to What good looks like for assisted medicines taking” produced by a multi sector working group within the North West.  The aim of the document is to provide best practice guidance for assessing and providing aids to support medicines taking. It is intended to help staff working within health and social care sectors who may be involved in supporting individuals to take their medicines safely.

The document can be found here An Interactive Guide to What good looks like for assisted medicines taking.

We hope you find this document useful and it encourages you to use this as a helpful resource when considering the adjustment that may be required to support individuals when taking their medicines.”
