Following the launch of the NHS Pharmacy First service in January 2024, CPPE have endeavoured to deliver a range of learning materials and resources to support pharmacy professionals to prepare for delivery of the service.
The Pharmacy First self-assessment framework contains details of suggested learning resources against each statement so that you are signposted to materials which will support your learning for any gaps you identify in your knowledge, skills, and behaviours.
Please read on for a full list of associated e-learning programmes, e-courses and other resources to help you to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to undertake effective consultations, communications and clinical assessments in order to provide the NHS Pharmacy First service.
