Medication Management at Transitions of Care Resource Kit

The Medication Management at Transitions of Care resource kit has been developed by Advanced Pharmacy Australia (AdPha) and RACGP. These resources help Australians, and their care teams, through one of the riskiest stages of the patient journey.

The Resource Kit comprises three resources to support clear, accurate and timely communication as patients transition through care providers:

1. Practice Update: Medication Management at Transitions of Care clearly defines the role of the hospital pharmacist, general practice pharmacist (GPP), and the general practitioner (GP) in delivering safe and quality medication management services to their patients transitioning between acute and primary care.
2. Resource for healthcare professionals: Safe Medication Management at Transitions of Care supports healthcare professionals in ensuring safe and effective medication management during patient transitions between care settings.
3. Resources for consumers: Medication safety when moving between the community and hospital helps consumers manage their medicines safely when moving between home and hospital.
