Dispensing for Special Needs
In accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) we aim to offer support to those who are in need. Where required we provide medication in easy to open bottles or bold lettering or in weekly or monthly medication packs. Residents in CareHomes receive their dispensing via our Monitored Dosage System which is designed to help Nurses and Carers manage medication.
