Talking Meds Episode 22: Caring about medicines in care homes with Jonathan and Sundus, part 4

Jonathan talks to Sundus Jawad who works for NHS Frimley, and has over 25 years' experience working closely with GP practices, care homes and other providers. 

In this episode, Jonathan and Sundus discuss the importance of having good networks and the role of forums like PrescQIPP's Virtual Professional Group (VPG) for care homes in helping with that. While Robins are lovely, iconic birds, perhaps being more like Blue Tits can help us more! They discuss some personal examples of how forming networks has helped them, with a couple of fascinating patient stories along the way.

They also discuss their initial thoughts about the recently published 10 year Health Plan for England, 'Fit for the Future' and the implications for medicines, pharmacy and care homes within that.
