accredited pharmacist conducts a medication review in a
patient’s home and reports the findings and recommendations
to the GP. The patient is recalled for a consultation with
the GP to decide on a medication management plan.

maximise an individual patient’s benefit from their
medication regimen, accomplished through a team approach
involving the GP and the patient’s preferred community
pharmacy, with the patient as the central focus. Any person
living at home in the community or in a retirement village
is eligible for a Home Medicines Review (HMR) once in a
12 month period (unless there is a significant change in
condition or medication regimen). HMR is not available to
