The potential for using a Universal Medication Schedule (UMS) to improve adherence in patients taking multiple medications in the UK: a qualitative evaluation (2015)
Journal Article
Kenning, C., Protheroe, J., Gray, N., Ashcroft, D., & Bower, P. (2015). The potential for using a Universal Medication Schedule (UMS) to improve adherence in patients taking multiple medications in the UK: a qualitative evaluation. BMC Health Services Research, 15, Article 94. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-015-0749-8

BACKGROUND: Poor adherence to prescribed medication has major consequences. Managing multiple long-term conditions often involves polypharmacy, potentially increasing complexity and the possibility of poor adherence. As a result of the globally recog...

Modelling successful primary care for multimorbidity: a realist synthesis of successes and failures in concurrent learning and healthcare delivery (2015)
Journal Article
Rees, & Protheroe. (2015). Modelling successful primary care for multimorbidity: a realist synthesis of successes and failures in concurrent learning and healthcare delivery. BMC Family Practice, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12875-015-0234-9

Background People are increasingly living for longer with multimorbidity.
