Stock Pharmacy Patients Own/My Medicine Bags

Patient’s Own Medicine (POM) bags, also known as the green bag, are supplied to ambulance drivers and, in some cases, to A&E departments. The primary purpose of the POM bag is to allow family members to gather the patient’s existing medication in an emergency when an ambulance is called. This may include prescribed medications, as well as herbal or contraceptive medicines. The bag ensures that, upon the patient’s admission to the hospital, the Pharmacist or doctor at the bedside can review a complete list of the patient's medications for accurate assessment. A&E departments may also issue these bags to patients admitted to the wards.
