The land is actually of reasonably good quality for agricultural use. [Cllr.

  • Pharmacy Report V17 PDF.Pdf
    22 Medication compliance aids are a way of dispensing medication for those people who have difficulty remembering to take it due to cognitive impairment or who have physical conditions (such as arthritis or MS) that prevent them from opening packaging. The brand names Dosette® Nomad®, Venalink® and Medidose® are commonly used. The use of MCAs appears to be increasing nationally. (BMJ 2018) https://www.bmj.com/content/362/bmj.k2801.full The medication is packaged by the pharmacist into time slots for 7 days of the week. With some patients taking multiple medications of different doses throughout the day it can be a lifeline. Before receiving a prescription for an MCA the patient must have a medication review with their GP surgery. The provider will consider other options to help the patient take their medication such as easy read labels before issuing a prescription for an MCA. (The Pharmaceutical Journal, 2019) https://www.pharmaceutical- journal.com/news-and-analysis/features/are-we-dispensing-too-many- multicompartment-compliance-aids/20206131.article?firstPass=false 3 Healthwatch Wokingham Borough were contacted by Age UK Berkshire about a client who had been assessed as needing a medication compliance aid (MCA) but was unable to find a pharmacy to supply her with her medication in this way. Age UK Berkshire's preliminary investigations had led them to believe that this was not just an isolated incident. Miss M is 78 and lives alone. She needs a lot of different tablets for various long-term conditions, and previously received her regular medication in a Nomad pack from her local pharmacy in Wokingham.
