On 12th March, we welcome Sam Morris, Medicines Manager, Directorate of Clinical, Medicine and Primary Care to present on their winning silver award 2024 innovation project - Safer Prescribing in Pregnancy Q.I. Project.
Somerset wanted to be proactive and holistic in their approach to improve access for their community to safe and effectively prescribe while pregnant and lactating.
Prioritisation of this cohort of people has not been high, with many being told to either go without treatment, have less-effective treatments, or stop breastfeeding before families are ready.
Everyone is affected by this, not just women or birthing people, everyone born could be exposed to medications in utero, all babies need to be fed and have a well parent.
