The coroner's concerns
1. [REDACTED] abuse
“There may not have been a clear indication on the patients medical record about the potential risk of [REDACTED] abuse, or for the risk to be flagged up to members of staff before discharge”

Stated action
“The 'Pharmacy Medication History Form' now includes the question 'Does this patient get a limited supply in community', requiring a 'yes' or 'no' answer. The user can still add free text narrative but the fact of selecting 'yes' in response to this question fires specific actions downstream when clinicians are looking to progress the patient's discharge.”
