Value proposition

We are focused on enhancing patient safety & medication adherence through accessible and bilingual information.

Written Medicine makes information about prescribed medicines accessible for patients with language and communication barriers, while reducing health inequalities. At the point of prescribing, dispensing and discharge, healthcare professionals use Written Medicine to print medicine instructions and warnings in simplified English linked to 13 languages and pictograms, mapped to 3000+ phrases.

Language barriers is a contributing factor in non-adherence, poorer experience and reduced patient safety. NHS England’s Core20PLUS5 national agenda of reducing health inequalities recognises language barriers and seeks to make care as personalised as possible, when being delivered to people with limited English literacy, regardless of they are first or second language English speakers.

Written Medicine is the only software company with an NHS England case study of reducing health inequalities with bilingual pharmacy labels. Here is a link to the case study;
