Wye Valley NHS Trust Case Study: ePMA implementation at pace
In just nine months Better Meds was live across 95% of the trust, and staff quickly noted significant improvements to safety and efficiency.
“I’ve found the system to be invaluable when completing audits and investigations; I’m able to see clearly what the medication was, who prescribed it, who stopped it and on what date, without having to distinguish the writing or signature. It’s much safer and enables a clear audit trail.”
