Some notes on prescriptions.
Two separate surveys of prescriptions and prescription habits have been performed. In a survey in one pharmacy in Tamworth, 16 out of 750 prescriptions had to be returned to the doctor for correction. The most common problem was illegible handwriting. Another survey to determine the competence of script writing amongst 12 interns at Tamworth Base Hospital revealed a certain lack in their basic training.
