Draft Medication Management at Transitions of Care Stewardship Framework
The Commission is undertaking a consultation on a Medication Management at Transitions of Care Stewardship Framework.
Overview
Are you a health organisation or a healthcare professional working in the acute, primary or aged care sector involved in managing medicines for patients at transitions of care?
Do you want to help shape a national framework to optimise the use of medicines at transitions of care and reduce the risk of medication related harm?
The Commission has developed a draft Medication Management at Transitions of Care Stewardship Framework (the Framework) which aims to:
- Support coordinated governance of medication management at transitions of care
- Promote and optimise appropriate medicines management practices at transitions of care
- Reduce hospital re-admission rates due to medication errors that occur at discharge
- Improve hospital referral pathways to primary and community healthcare providers

The Commission seeks your feedback and input on the draft Framework via a 20-minute online survey.
