Some people need to take medicines to help them feel better or stay healthy. But sometimes, they might not know how to use their medicines the right way. CWP Medicine Support Service is here to help.
Our Advance Nurse Practitioner (AMP) will advise patients on:
- Where to keep their medicines so they don't get spoiled or lost
- How to throw away their medicines when they don't need them anymore
- What their medicines do and why they need to take them
- What might happen if they take too much or too little of their medicines
- When and how to take their medicines, such as with food or water
- How to check if their medicines are working well for them
Our AMP want to make sure that people get the best results from their medicines and stay safe. We are always ready to answer any questions that people might have about their medicines.
