Mental health and wellbeing in primary care
Course description:
We rely on a small team and user feedback to keep Pharmacy Courses running. Notice something looks odd? Let us know!This online workshop focuses on common mental health conditions seen in primary care. It will enable you to support patients with a mental health condition to optimise their medicines. It will combine principles of team-based learning (TBL) to facilitate networking and discussion whilst consolidating the underpinning knowledge about antidepressants, benzodiazepines and z-hypnotics. Teams will work through simple and more complex case studies to apply knowledge and share best practice.
On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:
- explain how mental health conditions can impact on patients and their carers and the key priorities for maintaining good mental health
- outline drug and non-drug management for depression
- apply national guidelines, referral criteria and evidence-informed decision-making on depression to patient care in general practice
- develop a plan to improve safety and quality for benzodiazepine and z-drugs prescribing in general practice
- identify strategies for supporting patients to reduce or stop benzodiazepines and z-drugs
