DMMR Partners supports GPs with coordinated DMMR / HMR services delivered by accredited pharmacists — helping reduce medication risk, improve patient understanding, and strengthen continuity of care.
A Home Medicines Review (HMR / DMMR) supports patients who may be at risk of medication-related problems due to polypharmacy, complex treatment plans, recent hospital discharge, or difficulty managing and organising their medicines safely and consistently at home.
Working collaboratively with GPs, accredited pharmacists complete a structured, patient-centred review to improve medication safety, understanding, adherence and treatment outcomes — helping to prevent avoidable complications and support coordinated, high-quality care.
The GP assesses patients who may benefit from a medication review — such as those taking multiple medicines, recently discharged from hospital, or experiencing side-effects, adherence issues, or treatment concerns.
The GP completes a DMMR / HMR referral online. Patient details and clinical information are provided securely, ensuring the pharmacist receives all relevant background for assessment.
