Anita Hogg recently travelled to Bologna Italy to attend the ENABLE COST Action meetings and the Eurodurg Conference.
The ENABLE COST Action promotes best practice in the development and sustainable implementation of medication adherence technologies in health and social care systems. The Bologna meetings facilitated multidisciplinary collaboration for successful development and deployment of technologies and supported further development of the ENABLE repository, a key deliverable of the ENABLE Action. Over 30 countries participated. MOIC is a member of both Working Groups 1 and 2.
The European Drug Utilisation Research Group has a long time tradition of arranging scientific meetings focusing on the quality use of medicines. This year focused on the sustainable use of medicine, globalisation of medicine use and drug utilisation as well as a special focus on medication adherence. Anita attended on behalf of MOIC and was pleased to present a poster on the iSIMPATHY Shared learning model.
This was a fantastic opportunity to showcase MOIC’s work to a global audience and connect with colleagues throughout Europe.

This week MOIC’s Anita Hogg travelled to Bologna to attend the Enable Cost Action meetings that brought together experts from throughout Europe to discuss medicine adherence.
The ENABLE Action aims to promote best practices in the development and sustainable implementation of medication adherence technologies in health and social care systems. Through this Training School, it aims to engage participants from different backgrounds and European countries in building common ground for research and practice in the interdisciplinary domain of medication adherence.
MOIC were delighted to be part of this collaboration and it was a fantastic opportunity to share learning and bring this back to Northern Ireland.

The MOIC team recently took time out to talk about “What Matters to You?”
The annual “What Matters To You?” Day (WMTY) Day takes place on Tuesday 6 June 2023. It is an annual celebration of putting people at the heart of their care or support. Asking “What Matters To You?” is about listening and understanding what really matters to people, including our patients, residents, service users, family members and our colleagues. WMTY conversations empower people to be involved in decisions about their own health and care.
In our team meeting we reflected on what matters most to individuals. Whilst everyone agreed that family, friends and loved ones matter most to us we also discussed how important the below factors are:
• Health
• Fitness
• Healthy ageing
• Sleep
• New experiences and challenges
• Fulfilment at work.
