Palliative injectable medications for Symptom Relief Kit (SRK) – Renewal, Refill or Medication Addition Form

Use this form when a patient already has a Symptom Relief Kit (SRK) in the home and requires a medication renewal, refill, or addition. The standard OHaH SRK order form should not be reused for these requests.

This form helps streamline ordering and ensures that required information—including appropriate medication concentrations, quantities and LU codes—is included.

To use: Complete and sign the form, then fax it to Ontario Health atHome (OHaH) for processing.

For an initial SRK request, please use the standard OHaH SRK order form.
