MidCPG Community Pharmacy Services

MidCPG clinical pharmacists provide Medicine Use Reviews (MUR) and Medicine Therapy Assessments (MTA) for eligible high-needs patients across the Waikato region.

The service is centrally funded and free for patients. Referrals can be made by clinicians, patients, or whānau for anyone who is having difficulty understanding or managing their medicines, or if there is a need for optimisation of medicine regimens.

Referrals

Refer patients by emailing pharmacyreferrals@midcpg.co.nz.

MMS service details

MMS pharmacists can visit appropriate patients at home or at an agreed clinic site for a consultation that may include:

• improving understanding of health conditions and medicines
• simplifying medicine regimens to support adherence
• reconciling medicine records (e.g., hospital discharges, clinics, GP records) with current prescriptions
• working with the patient’s GP to optimise medicine therapy.

Patients receive a personalised medication card and an action plan. The patient’s GP, pharmacy, and referrer receive a summary report following the consultation.

Strong & Stable is an ACC falls prevention programme managed and facilitated by MidCPG.

The programme runs group-based strength and balance classes delivered by trained instructors for older people across Waikato, with the aim of reducing falls and fractures.

• Classes are scheduled throughout the week across greater Waikato.
• Any older person can attend sessions at no cost.
• Health professionals (e.g., doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, pharmacists) can refer to approved classes.
