NHS and maximise patient benefit of such
medications through effective and appropriate
high quality care
Objectives of this workshop
1. To move forwards with optimising the use of inhalers
across KSS
2. To agree specific ways forward and scope pieces of
work
3. To share examples of good practice
4. To identify volunteers and partners for project work
that is agreed
The story so far…..
• NHSE set a medicines optimisation priority to all
AHSN regions
• KSS AHSN hosted a MO event 19th May 2015

– National view from NHSE
– Polypharmacy
– AF and HF medications
– Inhalers
• Agreed to work up strategies and projects
Agreed Priorities
1. Need for spirometry competencies to be increased
across all kinds of professionals, for accurate earlier
diagnosis and ongoing effective monitoring
2. Need for improved effective use of inhalers by patients
and their carers, through improved inhaler
technique capabilities and training
3. Need for appropriate, effective and responsible
inhaler prescribing in terms of both medication

Inhaler Technique
How do we get it right and improve
technique, knowledge and
understanding of both HCP’s and
patients?
• Pharma websites
Examples
• On-line information/resources
• BLF
• Asthma uk
• Local CCG websites hosting information
• Local pharmacy websites
How shall we do this across KSS?
? Build on Train the trainer
? Agreed standardised training for the region- slide set
? Consistent messages
? Accredited training/competency sets
? combining training with MUR’s- utilise pharmacists
? Develop regional on-line resource- utilising existing
resources
? Patient/carer information
