@AisDevitt @CUHimprovers @CUH_Cork @mariewats @AndreaMoriarty7 Good luck with the next phase, amazing work done already. Well done Aisling

Very proud to have successfully completed a pilot project among Paediatric epilepsy patients transitioning children from liquid to tablet form medication with 80% success rate. Time to get "Take a Tab" to ward level now 🙌🏼 @CUHimprovers @CUH_Cork @mariewats @AndreaMoriarty7

@DietitianGen @CUHimprovers @CUH_Cork @matthewsfriends @KDRN_online Thank you 😊

Well done @AisDevitt 👏🏻 very important in our children on the #ketogenicdiet for #epilepsy to use the lowest carbohydrate form of medications to allow them more in their diets/meds not impacting on #ketosis! 🙌🏻 @CUHimprovers @CUH_Cork @matthewsfriends @KDRN_online

@ciarakirke @IrishPharmacy @IIOPharmacy @QueenAlocin We had pharmacists involved but mainly from costing point of view to prove cost effectiveness of the project. The rest of it was mainly ran by myself and my nursing colleagues for the pilot. We qould hope to have play therapy & psychology involved in the future for those in need

Seems like something that pharmacies could help with too? Important life skill for children and even some adults who aren’t comfortable taking tablets or capsules. @IrishPharmacy @IIOPharmacy @QueenAlocin

@dremmawallace @CUHimprovers @CUH_Cork @mariewats @AndreaMoriarty7 We had a few items on our inclusion criteria, but youngest age was 4years.
