tabling member printed	Lord Roberts of Llandudno
uin	HL903
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/07/2016 answer text <p>In general, if the hospital pharmacy issues medicines to a ward or individual patient and those medicines remain in the organisation, either because they are not supplied on discharge or the patient dies, then the medicines would be returned to ward stock or the pharmacy and re-used. If the medicines had been brought in to the hospital by the patient and the patient is subsequently discharged or dies, and the medicines remain in the hospital, then they would be safely disposed of by the hospital pharmacy.</p><p> </p><p>The main difference between the two scenarios is that, in the first there is sufficient guarantee of the storage conditions to ensure the medicines’ integrity can be assured. In the second scenario, such integrity cannot be guaranteed.</p> answering member printed Lord Prior of Brampton question first answered 07/07/2016 12:57:22 answering member 127 label Biography information for Lord Prior of Brampton
