... Aston University

Course Overview

The Pharmacist Independent Prescribing Practice Certificate is a 45 credit level 7 General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) accredited qualification delivered by Aston University, Birmingham. Taught predominantly online, this program will enable you to evaluate and challenge prescribing practice with reference to evidence-based practice, equality, and diversity, and clinical governance.

General Eligibility

Employment Registered pharmacist with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) or the Pharmaceutical Society of Northern Ireland (PSNI) employed in a patient-facing role, and be of good standing with your regulatory body. Have written approval from your employer/line manager and Non-Medical Prescribing lead (if applicable) supporting your study. Experience At least two years of appropriate patient-orientated experience practicing in a hospital, community, or primary care setting following your pre-registration year. Identify an area of clinical practice in which to develop your prescribing skills. Have up-to-date clinical, pharmacological, and pharmaceutical knowledge relevant to your intended area of prescribing practice. Demonstrate that you reflect on your own performance and take responsibility for your own CPD. Supervision Have a Designated Prescribing Practitioner (DPP) who has agreed to supervise the in-practice learning element. Applicant’s DPP must be a registered healthcare professional in Great Britain or Northern Ireland with legal independent prescribing rights, who is suitably experienced and qualified to carry out this supervisory role, and who has demonstrated CPD or revalidation relevant to this role. Although an applicant may be supervised by more than one person, only one prescriber must be the DPP. The DPP is the person who will certify that successful pharmacists are competent to practice as independent prescribers. Please see further information below on DPP pre-requisites when considering who to approach to supervise your in-practice learning. Information for potential DPPs is also supplied below. Desirable A relevant postgraduate clinical diploma (or equivalent).
