Guidelines aim to improve the quality of medical care through knowledge transfer. The effectiveness and benefit of guidelines depend on their quality and on the extent to which they are implemented in clinical practice. The persons responsible in clinical practice should therefore not only have knowledge of guidelines, but also know how to implement them as comprehensively as possible against the background of the existing structural and personnel conditions in everyday work. Against this background, the object of a small study was to use qualitative methods to develop measures that could contribute to better guideline adherence in the prescription of psychotropic drugs for people with intellectual disabilities living in residential accommodations. The study was conducted in Germany in 2022. Twenty-two workshops with focus group discussions were held. The result is a catalogue with a total of 67 potentially helpful measures.
