By the Steering Group on Improving the Use of Medicines (2012)
This report looks at ways of improving the use of medicines and tackling avoidable wastage in primary and community care, secondary care, and in care homes and end of life care. It also looks at how patients can be better engaged in decisions about their medicines as well as how information can be better provided to patients and health and care professionals. The action plan outlines how best practice could be shared across the NHS in the future.
