Discharge support & reablement

Keeping patients safe when they transfer between care providers. It is widely accepted that when patients move between care providers the risk of miscommunication and unintended changes to medications is a significant problem. It has been reported that between 30 and 70 percent of patients have either an error or an unintentional change to their medicines when their care is transferred. Getting the transfer of medicines information right can be challenging as patients follow complex pathways and systems vary between providers.
