A cross-border trial has improved care for patients prescribed multiple medicines. The iSIMPATHY project, funded by the European Union's INTERREG VA Programme, worked with professionals in Scotland, the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland to comprehensively review patient medication.
Kiara Kirke who is the Clinical Lead with the National Medication Safety Programme in the HSE and HSE Lead with iSIMPATHY says the project was a huge success with GPs from across Cavan and Monaghan participating.
Kiara spoke to the Wider View this week and she began by highlighting how this latest review has been two years in the making.
