As a Consultant Pathway Pharmacist for Frailty and Older People, I specialise in medicines optimisation and service development for older adults with frailty, dementia, and cognitive impairment. I work across North East London and Mid and South Essex, supporting the National Ageing Well Programme, with a focus on reducing health inequalities and improving outcomes through safe, patient-centred medication management. My practice prioritises reducing harmful polypharmacy, reviewing high anticholinergic burden medications, and promoting shared decision-making. I also contribute as a lecturer in Clinical Prescribing, training future pharmacists, and am progressing toward Consultant Pharmacist status with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society.
