Diabetes in Practice for Pharmacists
Course Description

PSA in collaboration with Diabetes Qualified (DQ) have co-developed the Diabetes in Practice for Pharmacists course.

This course enables pharmacists, and pharmacists in training to deliver consistent, relevant and actionable support, and have a supportive and helpful conversation with people living with diabetes.

Diabetes in Practice for Pharmacists offers 16 topics that can be completed in 3 individual modules. At the end of each module there is an assessment. Once all the modules have been completed and all three assessments are passed a certificate of completion is issued.

The course focuses on how pharmacists can interact and communicate complex medical information to patients who may not have well-developed health literacy. Pharmacists will be able to ask people with diabetes more meaningful questions, support their medication usage and product choices and have supportive conversations, giving advice or referring on where needed.

CPD

This activity has been accredited for 9 hours of Group 1 CPD (or 9 CPD credits), suitable for inclusion in an individual pharmacist’s CPD plan, which can be converted 9 hours of Group 2 CPD (18 CPD credits) upon successful completion of relevant assessment activities
