Overview
This important national conference provides an essential, practice-focused update for pharmacists and non-medical prescribers working with older people across acute, primary care, community pharmacy, PCN, intermediate care and care home settings.
The role of the pharmacist prescriber is expanding rapidly. NHS England has confirmed that from September 2026 all newly qualified pharmacists will be independent prescribers on registration, creating new opportunities for pharmacist-led clinical services, medicines optimisation and prescribing within integrated primary care and community pharmacy.
The conference will explore how pharmacists and pharmacist prescribers can lead safe, person-centred prescribing and medicines optimisation for older adults. There will be a particular focus on structured medication review, polypharmacy, deprescribing, medication safety, shared decision-making, medicines reconciliation and safer transitions of care.
