Pharmacist Medication Audits

Are you confident your medicines systems are safe, effective and meeting current regulatory expectations?

Independent audits by experienced pharmacists to assess your medication processes, identify gaps, and recommend improvements – helping you meet regulatory expectations and reduce medication-related risks.

Benefits of a Medication Audit

  • Supporting compliance with regulations
  • Checking that staff training & competency arrangements are appropriate and properly documented
  • Preventing and reducing errors
  • Demonstrating accountability
  • Identifying opportunities for staff development

Our robust medication audit will consider the following areas of safe medicines management:
• Storage & disposal
• Administering & handling of medicines
• Accurate record keeping
• Controlled drugs
• “When required” medication (PRN)
• Homely remedies and other non-prescribed medicines

During the visit we will advise and support you with your policies and procedures, including:
• Reconciliation of medicines
• Social leave
• Self-medication
• Covert administration
• Staff training and competencies
• Error/incident reporting (and corrective action)

We can also, with your permission, observe your staff administering medicines to the people they care for and provide any applicable feedback.

Following the visit, we provide a comprehensive written report identifying any areas for improvement and recommended actions. We also provide ongoing professional advice and support, together with relevant AIT Medihelp forms and templates where these may help strengthen medicines practice.

Fees & Enquiries: Medication audits start from £325 + VAT.

The final fee depends on the size and type of service, the number of records reviewed and the location.

Error Management Workshops

Our Error Management Workshops support the principles of CQC’s Learning Culture quality statement, helping organisations develop a fair, open approach to medication errors, incident review and continuous improvement.

Our three-hour pharmacist-led workshops, delivered at your service, focus on creating an open environment where errors are seen as learning opportunities, not just incidents to avoid. Through a thorough assessment of your existing practices, we help you identify areas for improvement and develop tailored strategies and action plans that enhance error reporting, reduce future risks, and promote a culture of accountability and support.

Key benefits of the Workshop:

  • Encouraging open discussions about errors to foster learning
  • Providing expert guidance on incident review, reporting and root-cause analysis
  • Promoting transparency and continuous improvement across teams
  • Aligning practices with CQC’s “Learning Culture” criteria

The workshop can help your organisation strengthen its approach to medication safety, learning from incidents and meeting relevant regulatory expectations.

Fees & Booking: £375 (+ VAT).
