Adhering to QUM principles maximises the opportunity for benefits from medications whilst minimising potential harms from medications.
The topic of my PhD studies was investigating the best methods and tools for evaluating the quality use of medicines in the permanent residential aged care population in Australia with particular focus on this population's unique clinical and demographic characteristics.
