Scenario: Inpatient Discharge

Patient Paige Turner is discharged from hospital following an admission where she was diagnosed as being diabetic. She was prescribed 4 weeks quantity of Metformin 500mg tablets by Dr Makieu Well, to take twice daily on an on-going basis.

The medication request was recorded by pharmacist Bill Ding. Paige’s GP will be instructed to continue this course of medication within a discharge note.
