The Pharmacy Quality Scheme (PQS) forms part of the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF). It supports delivery of the NHS Long Term Plan and rewards community pharmacy contractors that deliver quality criteria in three quality dimensions: clinical effectiveness, patient safety and patient experience. You will find information about this year’s scheme on this page.
CPPE offer learning and assessments to support you in achieving criteria relating to the Respiratory domain in the 2023/2024 version of the scheme.
We also provide links to the learning available from elearning for healthcare required to support you in achieving criteria in the Prevention domain.
The 2023/24 PQS includes a requirement that may mean that staff are required to repeat training and e-assessments that they have completed previously, depending on the stated validity period and when staff completed the training and e-assessments. We have developed this tracker to support you to quickly determine which CPPE learning programmes and assessments you have completed within the specified timeframe (if applicable).
