Before you take it…Know Check Ask

The Federation Ageing Well Committee in conjunction with Federation Council is launching the Know Check Ask Campaign.  Federation Council Mayor, Cr Patrick Bourke said, “Know Check Ask promotes the use of a three-step approach to help increase awareness of, and educate the public about, the importance of using medication safely.  It also supports people to be more involved in decisions about their medication and encourage them to report issues and concerns about their medication and to keep an up-to-date ‘My Medicines List’.” The call for action is: Before you take it… KNOW - Your medicines and keep a list CHECK - That you are using the right medicine the right way ASK - Your healthcare professional if you are unsure It has been estimated that approximately 250,000 Australians are admitted to hospital every year because of problems or errors associated with the use of medicines.
