Pharmacists are being
reminded that auditing of
compliance with mandatory
registration standards may occur
at any time, and not just as part
of the normal registration renewal
process.
A communiqué from the
Pharmacy Board of Australia details
the recent pilot audits which
were designed to determine the
frequency, size and type of audits
required and establish an ongoing
audit methodology.
Pharmacists should ensure that
evidence of activities which meet
the requirements of the standard

commenced...if you are selected for
audit you will be notified in writing
and requested to provide evidence
that you meet the requirements of
the standard,” the update adds.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 08 Oct 13 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 08 Oct 13
