Digital medicines events and community

Events and forums that facilitate knowledge sharing and foster collaboration for the development of digital medicines initiatives.

Aimed at: The group is open to anyone supporting patient care. Usual participants include pharmacists, prescribers, clinical safety officers, technical leads, developers and others involved in developing medicines interoperability. 

Participants come from across NHS providers, system suppliers and other organisations supporting healthcare needs.

The Digital Medicines Community of Practice supports the design, development, implementation and improvement of solutions, services and capabilities that enable the seamless exchange of fully-structured medicines information across the NHS. The group meets once a month on Mondays, with additional sessions scheduled as required.

By fostering collaboration and innovation, we support safer, more efficient and interoperable digital medicines systems.
