THE Australasian College of Pharmacy has enhanced its training course to support the crucial role of pharmacy assistants in the Queensland Community Pharmacy Scope of Practice Pilot.
The expanded 'Queensland Community Pharmacy Scope of Practice Pilot Training for Pharmacy Assistants Course' now includes information on health conditions.
Part one of the course, launched in Mar (PD 13 Mar), covers the pilot's essential details, benefits for patients and pharmacies, and processes such as eligibility checks and how to maintain patient confidentiality.
Part two of the training delves into 17 common and five chronic health conditions included in the pilot.
Both parts of the course are accredited for QCPP Refresher Training, and are accessible online through the College's CPD library.
Pharmacy assistants can enrol in both parts for $150 (including GST).
The College's training aims to ensure pharmacy assistants are well-prepared to contribute to the pilot and help enhance community healthcare.
