• W2784685347 abstract "Aim Recruiting sufficient numbers of nurses can provide a challenge for hospitals. Pharmacists have been identified as being able to support nurses by taking on medicines management tasks alongside traditional nursing responsibilities such as medicines administration and discharge planning. 1 At Barts Health NHS Trust there was increased pressure on nursing staff particularly on one of the complex medical wards during the winter pressure months. Paediatric pharmacists were identified as being able to support nurse: Safe nursing time by taking on some of nursing responsibilities Active discharge planning and coordination Reduce discharge prescription waiting times Improve education and training for nurses, doctors and patients in relation to medicines management. Method A pilot project on one paediatric medical ward was started in February 2016. The pharmacist is supernumerary to standard ward pharmacy service, reporting to the ward manager and lead pharmacist. Working hours are 9 am–5 pm Monday to Friday. Intensive training was provided over 2.5 weeks with subsequent sign off for administration of oral medication, 2nd checking for intravenous (IV) medication and IV giving. Drug listing for discharge prescription (TTA) was introduced, which involves a discussion with the doctor for medicines on discharge, transcribing these onto the TTA and using ward based dispensing where possible. Results were collected pre and post implementation. Results Medication administration activity: Nurse time – 60 hours/month (medication administration and 2nd checking) saved. Discharge information: Proportion of TTAs dispensed at ward level increased from 19% to 78% post implementation, avoiding delays in dispensary. Average time writing TTA to being ready for discharge reduced from 280 min to 91 min. Drug listing reduced discharge time further to 52 min. Missed and delayed doses: Random sample of 5 patients audited over 48 hour period, shown to reduce missed doses from 14% to 0%. Comments from staff: ‘Because of skill mix and use of agency staff, assisting in preparing and giving IVABs has been a major help as on many days only 1 IV giver.’ ‘Junior staff value and support WFP and have felt has been useful to them.’ ‘Junior and agency staff feels better supported in understanding medicines usage’. ‘Lot of complex patients with many drugs, the pharmacist has helped reducing delay in administration times’. ‘TTAs for patients identified as going home have been validated sooner’. ‘She helped us to reduce the number of incidents with expiry dates of medicines’. Conclusion The role of the medicines facilitation pharmacist has been very well received by the nursing staff and the pharmacist is now an integral part of the ward team. The pharmacist was able to save a significant amount of nursing time and reduced risks of delayed and missed doses significantly and is able to provide continuous input into all aspects of medicines management. The average discharge time has reduced to substantially due to improved discharge planning, drug listing and ward based dispensing. Reference Robinson S.
