Purpose of the event:

These weekly webinars temporarily replace the face to face CPSC Academy events originally planned for May.

They provide local support and advice for our pharmacy contractors. The events are provided by CPSC and our local training expert partner Pharmacy Complete.

Community pharmacy is at the frontline of the NHS committed to provision of medicines, care and advice whilst facing unprecedented demand and under extreme pressure. CPSC will do everything we can to support you and ensure you receive relevant, practical and accurate information about COVID-19.

There is now so much information coming out about COVID-19 that it is difficult to find the time to know where to look. We are therefore running these weekly webinars to pull information together in one place in a half-hour weekly briefing.

Purpose of the event:

The webinars are continuing to run for all contractors, community pharmacists and their teams as a replacement to the face to face CPSC Academy events originally planned for September.

We had been running weekly webinars throughout April and May, but have now decided to move to fortnightly updates as we enter the next phase of the pandemic. This will however, be reviewed depending on the pace of change in all things impacting on pharmacy - as we all know the picture is forever evolving, so we will review this accordingly.

We remain committed to ensuring you have all the latest information quickly in one place, that you know where to find out more and understand the impact on you. We will also continue to use the questions and points of concern you raise during the live events to raise with local commissioners and feedback to PSNC as appropriate. We will continue to send our our weekly newsletter and keep our COVID-19 hub page updated.

Purpose of the event:

• Peer review is a key element of revalidation for registered pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in 2019 and beyond
• In this workshop we will guide you through the requirements for peer review, connect you with a peer and facilitate a peer review
  
• We will provide some hints and tips on coaching conversations, what a good review looks like and the opportunity to complete your actual peer review on the night
• The focus for this will be around our key role in patient safety

Purpose of the event:

• Too often and for too long, community pharmacy has practiced in isolation outside of core primary healthcare and public health
• The health and care landscape is changing rapidly through transformation and integration programmes and community pharmacy must adapt accordingly; integration is a key focus for the NHS
• Those who have established effective professional relationships with other health and care providers and local commissioners have benefited from doing so. This does not happen by itself but comes from an understanding of local needs and building trust and relationships with others
• This workshop will explore how to develop productive relationships with others, build trust and network through effective communication, leadership and demonstrating the right capabilities and intent

Purpose of the event:

To ensure you know:

• why delivery of the CPCF is critical for community pharmacy’s future
• what has changed and what has not:
  • short summary of key elements
  • priorities
  • timeline
• how to plan and implement delivery (workshop session and shared learning and ideas)
  • PQS - quick summary with a hand out (Alison Freemantle summary) and revisit importance of local collaboration and engagement
  • MURs - deliver while we have it to maximise income and benefits with focus on the 2 targets
  • NMS - embed in practice and utilise TCAM
  • CPCS - key elements
• the key enablers
  • workforce and delegation
  • engagement with others
  • premises/environment

Purpose of the event:

As the community pharmacy contract changes you will be required to deliver more services in addition to dispensing, frequently with the same or less resource.

The February CPSC Academy series explores HOW you can do this safely and effectively by:

• using the skills of the pharmacy team
• improving productivity
• releasing time through operational efficiencies

Come along to network and learn from others to help build resilience and feel less stressed.

Purpose of event:

• Understand why addressing medicines-related harm is so important
• Know what your local GP Practices are doing to reduce medicines most likely to cause harm and how you can help (PINCER)
• Keeping patients safe – the importance of mindset and culture (what can we learn from the aviation industry)
• The impact of medicines-related harm; personal experiences
• Why and how medicines-related harm occurs – prescribing, dispensing and patient-initiated
• Practical ways to improve patient safety in your own pharmacy
• How to complete your QPS Patient Safety report
• What to do if an error occurs
• Have a simple action plan to implement with your team
• Complete a Revalidation CPD entry
