In March, Penny (Deputy Lead Clinician) represented Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust at the European Association of Hospital Pharmacists (EAHP) Congress 2026, showcasing the amazing work undertaken to improve homecare prescription workflows.

This collaboration between a range of staff from MMPS and clinical colleagues at Chapel Allerton Hospital was shortlisted as a Good Practice Initiative Project and selected as one of nine to be presented at the Congress. 4,000 delegates from across Europe were also able to view this work as a poster.

Congratulations to everyone involved - it sounds like the project may be a trailblazer for other organisations... 👏🏻

Laura (Head of Nursing) presented at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust Friday Focus on the challenges in gathering direct patient feedback on our services.

To overcome this challenge, Laura analysed comments from the Friends and Family Test for references to medicines. This review has since initiated discussions on addressing process inefficiencies, prescription return rates, and collaboration with the KPO Team to improve patient experience and system performance.

A great example of innovative thinking and The Leeds Way Values 👏

We were pleased to see MMPS making the headlines in a Trust bulletin again this week, following the visit of Stuart Andrew MP (Shadow Secretary of State for Health and Social Care) on Friday.

The visit showcased the brilliant work around Scan4Safety, a project that improves patient safety by using barcode technology, with MMPS being just one of the teams involved at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. This helps ensure that the right patient receives the right care or product in the right place at the right time.

Thank you to everyone involved 👏🏻
