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 e-assessment is linked with the CPPE Primary care essentials e-course and assesses you on the learning outcomes within that programme.
Why should I do this assessment?
This e-assessment completes the learning you began with the CPPE Primary care essentials e-course. Access and successful completion will contribute to your own personal development plan, be recorded in your My CPPE record and will enable you to complete a CPD entry on the learning.This resource is not currently available to you, click for more information.
The aim of this learning programme is to update your knowledge about working with care homes, the roles and responsibilities of the teams involved and the legal issues, guidance and regulations surrounding medicines in care homes. Through practice-based activities the programme supports you to use that knowledge in care homes and help residents make the most out of their medicines.

Learning Outcomes:
On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:If you are currently, or have been, enrolled on the NHS England funded Clinical Pharmacists in General Practice, Medicines Optimisation in Care Homes or Primary Care Pharmacy Education Pathways you should not enrol on this SMR e-course. The reason for this is that the learning on these pathways will already have given you the skills and knowledge you need to provide SMRs under the specification of the Network DES.
Please note, to provide Structured Medication Reviews under the terms of the Network Contract Directed Enhanced Service (DES) "pharmacists must have completed – or at least be enrolled on – the Primary Care Pharmacy Educational Pathway (PCPEP) or a similar training programme that includes independent prescribing" and so participating in this e-course alone will not enable you to comply with this requirement.
The aim of this course is to equip you with the knowledge, skills and behaviours that you need to begin undertaking person-centred structured medication reviews.

The original e-assessment has been withdrawn and we are currently undertaking a review process in order to determine the most suitable approach to support you to evaluate your learning as a result of undertaking the e-course.

This Primary care essentials e-course is a standalone module. 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.
