Non-Medical Prescribing
Our programme aims to provide a solid foundation of preparation for registered nurses, midwives, and allied health professionals in the United Kingdom in order for them to develop the knowledge, understanding, and skills needed to practise as safe, effective, and competent independent and supplementary prescribers.
The curriculum will help you improve your critical thinking abilities and personal reflection, equipping you for lifelong professional growth.
It will lay the groundwork for you to grow your practise, allowing you to deliver a high professional quality of care while also holding yourself accountable for that treatment.
The programme will introduce you to the general principles of pharmacology that apply to prescribing practise, as well as the professional, legal, and ethical frameworks that apply to Independent and Supplementary prescribing, as well as clinical governance and quality assurance aspects of prescribing.
