Consultation on our standards for prescribing

30 Sep 2018

We are consulting on changes to our standards for prescribing until Friday 4 January 2019 and we are keen to hear your views

Changes we are proposing include the following.

  • Aligning the standards with our revised standards of education and training.
  • Broadening the range of supervisors, from designated medical practitioners, to include suitably qualified and experienced independent and supplementary prescribers.
  • Adopting the Royal Pharmaceutical Society’s prescribing framework, which sets out the knowledge and skills all prescribers must have to practice safely and effectively
