We are seeking to recruit a medicines optimisation clinical lead role focused on overprescribing. Tackling overprescribing is essential to deliver operational and financial efficiency, clinical effectiveness and objectives of the ICS. Many medicines are often prescribed beyond the point at which they are beneficial and may cause harm. 30-50% of medicines prescribed for long-term conditions are not taken as intended. Also, medicines account for the largest carbon emission ‘hotspot’ in primary care and 25% of NHS carbon footprint with the greatest waste being those not taken by patients. Overprescribing contributes significantly to these problems.
The National overprescribing review (NOR) report (2021) requires ICS to develop system wide solutions to address overprescribing and provide the clinical leadership, workforce education and training to implement the recommendations locally.
The primary responsibility of the role is to provide clinical leadership, input and strategic support to develop and implement systems wide solutions to address overprescribing in South East London (SEL). Particularly providing practical support to primary care clinicians to deliver the SEL overprescribing work plan.
The post-holder will work closely with the overprescribing lead pharmacist(s), Overprescribing Working Group (OPWG) and other leads across SEL.
The role is fixed term until 31 March 2024.
