The Medication Improvement Group was formed to bring together a multi-disciplinary group of Pharmacists, Physicians, and Nurses. In 2016 it focused on identifying “good practice” when considering Standard 4 of the ACQSHC standards, and participants learnt how to implement these practices in their health services.

In 2017 the theme for the meeting is to understand data classifications of drugs to be used within EMRs, and reduction of Adverse Drug Reactions.
