A focus on pain
IT IS important that pharmacy assistants have a strong understanding of how to assess pain, management options that are available and when referral to the pharmacist is required.
Guild Learning and Development is partnering with RB in the development of a QCPP Refresher training online course titled 'Paracetamol and ibuprofen combination analgesics'.
This course reviews the mode of action, benefits and tolerability profile of paracetamol and ibuprofen combination analgesics as well as assisting pharmacy assistants to identify when acute pain may require a combination pain reliever.
Pharmacy assistants who complete this course will be issued with a certificate of completion that can be used to demonstrate their QCPP Refresher Training requirements.
Please contact the Guild Learning and Development on 03 9810 9930 or email learninganddevelopment@guild.org.au for more information.
