We want all patient facing pharmacists to have the opportunity to become independent prescribers (IPs) over the next decade. We have committed to highlighting best practice to help our members utilise and develop their prescribing skills. This webinar is the first in a series of quarterly IP showcase events to inspire you.

In this webinar we focus on common clinical conditions in community pharmacy and GP practice. Watch now to:

  • Gain an insight to government strategies, support, training, practice models and outcomes across GB.
