Medications for inpatients of Mater Private Hospital Bundaberg are supplied by the pharmacy. All new medications will be
ordered on your behalf through a community pharmacy.
To ensure your medications are managed safely while in hospital, a pharmacist may review medications that you have been taking at home. Please ensure that you have all your medications with you in their original containers and any current prescriptions. Or, if you take many regular medications, please request a medication list from your local pharmacy and bring this too.
During your stay your specialist doctor may ask you to stop taking your regular medications or prescribe additional medication as part of your treatment plan. For this reason, medications that have been put into a dosette box or Webster pack cannot be used while you are in hospital. New supplies are required to ensure your safety.
