Grant Activity:
Optimising medicine information handover after discharge (REMAIN HOME 2.0)
Purpose:
A disconnect of medication-related patient information from hospital to primary care health providers contributes to preventable hospital readmissions nationwide. We will co-design an intervention, with consumers and stakeholders, to address this unmet need by advancing 3 strategies: (1) Hospital pharmacist navigators to coordinate community-based medicine reconciliation; (2) Medication management programs with patient-selected pharmacies and general practices; and (3) A digital medicine handover solution to prevent 30-day readmissions caused by medication-related harm. Project outcomes involve reduced hospital readmissions and improved patients medicine handover through delivery of the intervention after discharge from hospital.
