Homely Remedies SOP (S16)

Under normal circumstances, medicines should be administered either on the written prescription of an authorised prescriber, in accordance with the Medicines Code or under the authority of a Patient Group Direction. The Medication Optimisation Safety Team (MOST) has approved a list of non-prescription medicines or “homely remedies” that registered nurses and registered practitioners are authorised to administer at their own discretion, in accordance with the attached standard operating procedure, for a maximum of 48 hours (extended to 72 hours over a bank holiday weekend). The homely remedies approved are treatments commonly available over the counter for minor, short-term conditions without the need for a prescription or Patient Group Direction.

Admission Discharge and Transfer Policy for DCHS Community Hospitals (P56)

This Policy helps define the purpose of the treatment provided by our Community Hospitals and how to access these services. It does not apply to our Older Peoples Mental Health Wards or Learning Disability Service beds as they are accessed via a separate protocol. The Policy sets clinical standards to improve the admission of appropriate patients. It encompasses the whole patient pathway including the Admission, Discharge and Transfer processes of these services. The Policy aims to support well-organised, safe and timely admissions, discharges and transfers for all patients through appropriate planning with the patient and their relatives / carers.
