The role of the Association for Prescribers has evolved to provide all prescribers with support and education in order to feel confident in their role.
The Association recognises that the patient is at the heart of every prescriber’s career and that they need to continue improving their standards of care, knowledge and proficiency.
All of the courses below are open to any prescribing health professional (or those who give prescribing advice) including, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, physios etc (but would suit those working in primary/community care rather than those based in hospital.) They are particularly useful for those looking to extend their scope of practice. All are available as short courses but they can be used on a ‘pick and mix basis’ to accumulate academic credits towards a Cert/Diploma/MSc in Prescribing Studies.
Jacqui Kinsey MSc. IPresc. MFRPSII MRPharmS FHEA, Director of Prescribing Education Centre for Professional Development and Lifelong Learning, Keele University. See her webinar on the role of the DMP. It is mainly generic but does also reference the University’s approach to the role of the DMP in mentoring pharmacist trainee prescribers.
This recorded webinar gives some background into the role of the Designated Medical Practitioner (DMP) and what Keele expect from DMPs who support our trainee pharmacist independent prescribers. It also details the support that we give to those who take on this essential role.
