The future
The NHS will
continue to modernise and change. This will bring new demands on the profession
that will need to be underpinned with well-educated, trained and competent
staff. Among these factors will be:
· revised General Pharmaceutical Council standards for
education, training and CPD for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians
· training, often delivered by employers on a mandatory basis,
to support medicines governance, for example, to ensure competence for
prescribing, prescription screening and dispensing chemotherapy
· greater uptake of new ways to support learning and
assessment, for example, greater use of e-portfolios, e-learning and
e-assessment
· the further definition of advanced and specialist practice
and the specification of the learning needs of those practitioners
· the incorporation of new elements of practice into
undergraduate and preregistration training, for example, elements of
prescribing competencies and supply through patient group directions
· CPD and revalidation to practice
· new systems for workforce planning.
