AnnotationThe shift from hospital to home care of older patients means that the onus is on carers to ensure that medicines are taken properly. This leaflet explains how NPA (National Pharmaceutical Association) pharmacists can help with caring for people at home, in assessing clients' and carers' needs, and helping with compliance. Brief information is included on better prescribing, patient medication records held by community pharmacies, advice sessions at local day centres, and support for formal carers. (RH).
