Medication Counselling: what to say when you hand over a medicine
Free. Online on Teams, no account needed. 50 places.
Handing over a medicine is the moment most mistakes get caught, or missed. "Take one twice a day" is not counselling. This is 60 minutes of practical training, then 30 minutes on PPets courses and apps.
- The words that catch the common mistakes before the patient leaves
- How to check understanding without lecturing or embarrassing anyone
- When to bring in the pharmacist, and how to say so
- For counter staff, dispensers, trainee technicians and pharmacists trained outside the UK
