Recovery Orientated Prescribing
and Medicines Management

Medication is often a significant part of the intervention that is offered to people who use mental health services but limited guidance has been available on the use of medication to support personal recovery.

Devon Partnership Trust has now produced a leaflet based on a project aimed at developing such guidance.

The project considered the question:
What does putting recovery at the heart of everything mean when it comes to prescribing and medication?

The leaflet identifies a number of themes running through the responses.
It makes some recommendations on the role of medication in recovery and what mental health workers can do to support this.
