Effective handwashing is known to reduce the spread of infections - and thus reduce use of antibiotics! This video at https://t.co/6aqVnc2sGm on the importance of handwashing was part of our work last year to support #EAAD #CPPEAutumn2018 #KeepAntibioticsWorking

My nan nearly made it to 90yrs old & was in pretty good health until she had a fall. 8 months later she passed away. I knew about the risk of falls but now I've seen 1st hand the severe adverse impact falls have on health. Get involved #CPPEautumn2018

"Medicines optimisation is one part of a package of measures that you can do to reduce falls and pharmacy can play a really important role here" - @wasimbaqir says in the video to accompany Week 3 of the #CPPEautumn2018 learning campaign - find out more at https://t.co/GyyN1nf98H

I've completed week 3 of the campaign on falls prevention - I've known two people personally this year that have suffered falls with disastrous consequences. Anything that could be done to prevent this from happening to people is 100% worth getting behind #CPPEAutumn2018

In 2010, the cost of medicines waste was £300million. As spending on medicines has increased, this figure has likely increased too. Find out how to help reduce medicines waste by completing Week 2 of the #CPPEautumn2018 learning campaign at https://t.co/GyyN1nf98H @CPPEEngland

[Al Chemist @LeeDohertyCPPE]

Intervened with a repeat Rx request this morning. Patient: "I don't recognize those ones but I better have them". Explained what the item was for, patient realised not needed. Request GP to remove from repeat as no longer taking.
Opportunities to reduce waste every day🙂

[Al Chemist @LeeDohertyCPPE]

So important we all engage with this. Reducing meds waste would free up much needed resource for our NHS. Join the campaign and make your pledge today! @SuffolkLPC @NHSWSCCG @CPPEEast @nhsws #CPPEautumn2018

[CPPE East of England @CPPEEast]
