About this document
A complete policy and procedure for safe medicines support, from assessing what help a person needs to ordering, storing, administering, recording and disposing of medicines. It covers PRN, covert administration (with the Mental Capacity Act process), controlled drugs, errors and staff competency, and includes seven ready-to-use appendices including a MAR chart.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
