## About this tender

In 2021, Procurement Services undertook a review of expenditure relating to printed stationery across the Health Board. The review identified ongoing demand for a range of bespoke printed materials including, but not limited to:

- Community Nursing Drug Charts
- Ward Control Drug Books
- Specimen Bags
- Hospital Register Books
- Insulin Adult Prescription Charts

- Clinical Pathway Forms
- Laboratory and Referral Forms
- Prescription and Administration Records
