Brian MacKenna commented on the document Guide for health professionals on reducing carbon footprint of inhaler prescribing in the group Primary Care 2 years, 11 months ago
Just to mention that you can review inhaler prescribing data in your own practice on the OpenPrescribing Greener NHS dashboard. https://www.thedatalab.org/blog/65/greener-nhs-prescribing-dashboards/
Thanks Brian – great to have access to these measures. Do you know if OpenPrescribing would still be keen to hear our ideas on what else might be worth measuring?
Always happy to hear them! feedback@openprescribing.net or twitter @openprescribing
PCRS have also been actively working on this, see https://www.pcrs-uk.org/greener-respiratory-pathway It looks at the whole pathway including and beyond the inhaler, just added our guide to inhaler switches based on environmental considerations too https://www.pcrs-uk.org/resource/pcrs-guidance-making-safe-and-clinically-appropriate-changes-inhalers
