The NHS and drug errors


Drug errors in England cause appalling levels of harm and deaths, Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt says, as data suggests mistakes are being made. GPs, pharmacists, hospitals and care homes may be making 237 million errors a year - the equivalent of one mistake made for every five drugs handed out. The study said most caused no problems, but in more than a quarter of cases the mistakes could have caused harm. In this podcast we delve into the world of drugs as well as finding out from our health secretary what the government Brexit plan actually is. (Image: Jeremy Hunt, credit: BBC)
