CQC commissioned Ipsos to undertake research with adult social care providers to understand what support providers are receiving to ensure medicines are managed safely, how the support impacts the quality of care that providers are able to deliver, and future support needs.

 

The key aims of the research were to gather evidence to provide an improved understanding of:

• The support adult social care providers are receiving to ensure medicines are managed safely, from primary, secondary care and other relevant organisations (such as integrated care boards (ICB) and local authorities);

• Where the gaps in medicines support exist;

• Providers’ views on the impact of these gaps on the quality of care delivered and people’s outcomes.
