NIMC and specialist charts quality adjustment


There is a process for considering quality adjustments to the NIMC that will improve medication safety. The Jurisdictional Guidelines for Local Management of the NIMC provide guidance on how the NIMC is managed locally and nationally.

Adjustment requests are considered by the NIMC Oversight Committee. A change request register is maintained and includes the consideration outcomes.
