Medication management issues perceived by pharmacists and disability caregivers while supporting people with disability
This study highlighted seven areas where issues were perceived to arise in medication management for PWD. By understanding the issues perceived by those directly providing care, it may be possible to improve medication management. Further research is needed to understand the perceived role of pharmacists in supporting medication management for PWD and their caregivers, and how enabling pharmacists scope might reduce medication-related risks and support QUM in this sector.
