TAM subgroup

The TAM subgroup is a multidisciplinary, interface working group of NHS Highland’s Area Drug and Therapeutics Committee with Primary & Secondary Care, medical, nursing, allied health professional, pharmacy and lay representatives. Its remit is to maintain the Highland Formulary and the TAM app for Highland Health and Social Care Partnership (HHSCP).

It meets bimonthly (subgroup dates). Guidance received up to 3 weeks prior to a subgroup will be discussed at that subgroup. If considered necessary, the Lead Author may attend to present the guidance.

TAM recommends having multidisiplinary, cross-sector and lay representation in developing guidance.
