Welcome to the CPPE general practice webpage. Pharmacy professionals have been working in general practices for many years in a variety of roles. There will be an expansion of clinical pharmacists working in general practice following the publication of the GP Forward View. Clinical pharmacists will help address some of the workload issues faced in general practice. Clinical pharmacists will be working towards running long-term condition and medication review clinics as independent prescribers. They will also support better management of repeat prescribing systems and promote the use of repeat dispensing. Pharmacy professionals working in general practice can build networks across interfaces with community pharmacists and hospital pharmacies to support transfer of care. CPPE has a wide range of resources which will support you when working in general practice. Some of these will be appropriate if you are thinking about moving into general practice. Those of you who are already experienced in general practice will find resources to help you to develop your role. Community pharmacy professionals will also find the resources useful to help them to engage better with general practices.
This event will equip you with the knowledge, skills and confidence that you need to engage effectively in clinical medication review of your patients and their medicines. During the workshop you will apply evidence-based clinical medication review tools in a case study setting to make recommendations for rationalising medicines use. You will also have the opportunity to work with simulated patients and use your consultation skills to practise undertaking face-to-face clinical medication reviews.

However, it also forms part of the Primary care pharmacy education pathway which is the training for pharmacy professionals with roles in primary care networks (PCN). You can access the pathway here.
The aim of this e-course is to introduce the fundamentals of new roles in primary care for those who are not eligible for the Primary care pharmacy education pathway.
This e-course will cover NHS structure and primary care, introduction to local general practice and care homes, medicines optimisation, medication review, prescribing and repeat prescribing, prescribing data, clinical information technology systems, audits, evidence-based use of medicines, working with the multidisciplinary team and person-centred professionalism.
By working through the activities in each unit and focusing on the tasks relating to your role, you will develop knowledge, skills, experience, and behaviours to support you in a role in primary care.
We have structured the programme into ten learning units and we estimate that you will probably need to commit between eight to ten hours of learning per unit to gain maximum benefit from the programme.
How will you learn?
