Medicines use in care homes: course 2

£14.99 (ex VAT)

This is the second of several bespoke e-learning packages to support care home staff involved in any aspect of medicines use.

Care home staff who are required to administer or assist with the administration of medication must have completed and satisfactorily passed the appropriate training, such as that provided by this e-learning course.

The course is broken down into six modules including:

  1. Missed and delayed doses
  2. Covert administration
  3. The management of controlled drugs in care homes
  4. Homely remedies and self-care
  5. Medicines reconciliation
  6. Effective management of medicine supplies in care homes

There are also three practical case studies to support the learning.

The course should take around 3 hours 30 minutes to complete, but we recommend that it is taken in stages and not in a single sitting.

Quizzes at the end of each module will test understanding and recap on key learning points, and a pass mark of 70% is required in the final assessment to complete the course and receive a certificate.

Access to a shorter annual update version of the course is included and can be completed on a yearly basis to refresh your knowledge.
