Medication & Carers
To allow Elderly folk to have their medication dealt with into Dossett boxes by trained Dispensary staff as opposed to Carers being responsible for sorting & giving out to out to the patient from the boxes Taking longer & making mistakes also!
Why is this important?
Carers do NOT have sufficient time to do the simple tasks & I can tell you mistakes are made SO how can they be trusted to deal with people's tablets over & above TRAINED Dispensery staff in Doctors surgeries? It I is ludicrous to say the least!! this was taken out of their regulations recently & I cannot see or know the logic of why? IT IS UNSAFE PRACTICE
