Independent and supplementary non-medical prescribing (NMP603 / NMP703)

Course description:
This exciting, challenging and contemporary non-medical prescribing module is designed to meet needs and expectations of a diverse range of healthcare professionals:
  • Nurses
  • Midwives
  • Physiotherapists
  • Podiatrists
  • Paramedics
  • Therapeutic radiographers
  • Pharmacists
This 40-credit module can be taken at either degree level or masters level, depending of your previous level of study and your regulatory body guidance.
The aim of this module is to advance the development of health care professionals, enabling the understanding of wider influences and principles of prescribing, in order to practice safely and effectively within their scope of professional practice.
You will enhance your understanding of the theoretical, analytical and clinical principles of prescribing within a sound framework for history taking, problem solving, accountability and the development of an analytical evidenced based rationale for prescribing actions.
This module is taught over 26 days, within a six-month period. It utilises a blended learning pathway consisting of 10 face-to-face taught days and 16 self-directed days supported by a distance learning package. There is also one day of revision, one day of examination and a final day offering tutorials. An additional 90 hours in practice supported by a suitably qualified independent prescribing assessor, promotes and embeds knowledge within your own clinical setting.
Learning outcomes are mapped to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's (2021) Competency Framework for all Prescribers.
Successful completion of this module will lead to annotation on the appropriate regulatory bodies’ register as an independent and supplementary prescriber.
