MURs and the NMS at discharge

This CPD module focuses on MURs and the NMS at discharge.

This module considers how the transfer of patients and their medication from secondary to primary care can be supported by the provision of medicines use reviews (MURs) and the new medicine service (NMS), thus promoting medicines optimisation.

Learning objectives:

  • Be aware of the problems that can occur with patient medication after discharge from hospital
  • Understand how the NMS can help to improve patient care
  • Understand how MURs can also be of benefit after hospital discharge.

Contributing authors: Nina Barnett, consultant pharmacist, older people, with contributions by Naz Khideja, lecturer in pharmacy practice, Keele School of Pharmacy
