Sustainable Prescribing in Secure Services – a Quality Improvement Initiative

[摘要] Aims In 2021 The Department of Health published a report into the safer use of medicines in health and justice mental health services, advocating sustainable prescribing as a way of improving patient care and reducing carbon emissions. Improving prescribing behaviour could lead to a reduction of 170,000 kg CO2e per year across England, along with cost savings which contribute to higher value service provision and improved service user experience. We aim to evaluate and improve the prescribing of antipsychotic depot and ‘as required’ (PRN) medication in a male secure unit.
