3 1 INTRODUCTION Welcome to the Level 6 Non-medical Prescribing (V300) module which was developed in response to the Government s Modernisation Agenda. This has extended the range of professionals who can prescribe and medicines that can be prescribed, by independent and supplementary non-medical prescribers. Independent prescribing is becoming a widely integrated feature of health service delivery, with nurses, physiotherapists, podiatrists and radiographers qualified to prescribe in nearly all Trusts in England. This supports the achievement of ambitions set out in Equity and Excellence: Liberating the NHS (Department of Health (DH) 2010). Two to three per cent of the nursing workforce are qualified independent prescribers and are prescribing predominantly in primary care, with substantial numbers also in secondary care settings. The drive for Allied Health Professionals to deliver improved clinical outcomes has meant that physiotherapists and podiatrists have from August 2013 had their supplementary prescribing rights extended to independent prescribing. Nurses, physiotherapist and podiatrists will also gain supplementary prescribing, radiographers will continue to be able to train as supplementary prescribers and prescribe within a Clinical Management Plan (CMP). Supplementary Prescribing legislation in 2005 initially prepared health professionals to expand their roles. Nurses have trained as Independent Prescribers since 2006 and the expansion of Independent Prescribing by physiotherapists and podiatrists supports enhanced patient-centred care. New roles and new ways of working to improve quality of services, deliver safe, effective services focused on the patient experience have been developed across inter-professional working within health care. Non-medical prescribing has facilitated partnership working across professional and organisational boundaries and within the commissioning and provider arena. The benefits of non-medical prescribing to patients with a wide range of conditions have ensured that choice and faster access to medicines are a realistic service improvement. 2 THE MODULE STRUCTURE The length of the module is 18 weeks. During this time you will undertake 26 days theory time, and 12 days supernumerary supervised practice shadowing a prescribing Designated Medical Practitioner (DMP). You have a week-long induction in week one; this will introduce you to the University and the School of Health & Social Care. You will also be introduced to the principles of non-medical prescribing and be prepared for your supervised practice experience. This will be followed by 16 weekly study days; you will attend the University each Tuesday from 9.30am 4.30pm. Week 18 will be block week in which you will prepare for and undertake an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). If for any reason you are unable to complete the module in the allocated time it is important that you discuss this with a member of the module team. There are University support mechanisms in place which can support an extension of your studies should you need to use these. It is important that you discuss with the team

4 any difficulties you may encounter in order to ensure we support you appropriately to complete your studies. The Student Essential Guide (School Handbook) provides further detailed information. This can be found at Your organisation has agreed that you will undertake 12 days supernumerary supervised practice. It is necessary to ensure that you and your DMP are able to work together for sufficient time for your DMP to be able to confidently assess that you have met the practice outcomes for the module. It is expected that a programme of experience will allow you to work with other prescribing and nonmedical prescribing team members in order to experience a variety of learning opportunities. Your DMP must agree your learning plan and must be the person responsible for verifying that you have met the practice outcomes. 3 MODULE LEADER/MODULE TEAM CONTACT DETAILS The Module Leader for this module is Debbie Osborne and you should initially direct any queries or issues to Debbie. She is based in room H1.31 in the Centuria Building. Telephone , d.osborne@tees.ac.uk Bernadette Martin supports the module. She is based in room H1.20 in the Centuria Building, Teesside University, Middlesbrough. Telephone number , B.Martin@tees.ac.uk. Jayne Cornforth is the Lead Midwife for Education (LME) and supports midwives who undertake the module. She can be contacted on , J.Cornforth@tees.ac.uk The module is supported by an established and experienced team of pharmacists, and non-medical prescribers from both primary and secondary care. You will be offered the opportunity for professional/discipline-specific tutorials by specialist academic mentors in order to enable you to identify individual learning needs and to develop a Learning Contract to guide and facilitate academic learning. You will be directed to the most appropriate academic in week one of the module. All midwives must meet the LME. This will be arranged within week one of the module. 4 LEARNING AND TEACHING STRATEGIES Non-medical prescribing requires that you have the knowledge, skills, and professional competence necessary to embrace this new role. It also requires you to demonstrate a comprehensive and detailed understanding of the concepts of accountability and lifelong learning in a significant way. To this end the module aims to incorporate knowledge and reflection in a way that enables the development of self-awareness and for you to build upon previous learning as well as acquiring new competencies for safe and effective prescribing.

5 The module will help you to build upon previous knowledge and experience. This will ensure that you are knowledgeable, flexible and adaptable, and able to embrace both the theory and practice of non-medical prescribing in a critical and reflective manner. You will achieve the module aims through the development of a robust knowledge that is based upon the best available evidence, combined with a flexible and adaptable approach to both the theory and practice of non-medical prescribing. The taught component of the module will consist of theoretical preparation to ensure that you develop the knowledge and skills necessary to ensure safe and effective prescribing. The module focuses upon the principles and practice of prescribing and professional accountability, responsibility and ethics required by independent and supplementary non-medical prescribers. Related pathophysiology and pharmacology will be a major focus of the module. In order to facilitate and maximise learning a variety of learning strategies will be employed. You will share your learning with your peers undertaking the module at Master s level and students preparing for community prescribing. Taught sessions will include lectures and group discussions. There will be self-directed study based upon both the indicative content and an assessment of your own learning needs in relation to prescribing. Professional/discipline-specific tutorials will be offered by specialist academic mentors in order to enable you to identify individual learning needs and to develop a Learning Contract to guide and facilitate your learning. If you are a midwife you will be introduced to the LME in week one of the module who will support your learning and assessment preparation. Random case analysis will be used so that you will have the opportunity to analyse treatment situations and examine and critically reflect upon the decision-making process in relation to prescribing. The generic nature of the module content will facilitate you to apply your knowledge and understanding to safely prescribe within your own area of practice speciality. This will be further developed with the support and guidance of your DMP. You will be guided in preparing and developing your Portfolio that will provide evidence of your ability to critically reflect on and in practice. This will include the use of Learning Contracts and evidence of your successful completion of the practice element of the module. Also included will be a reflective analysis of your knowledge underpinning safe prescribing practice, and evidence of understanding the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, legal aspects, and application to practice of drugs you may prescribe in practice through the development of P-Formularies. You will develop an understanding of the differences between supplementary and independent prescribing and you will undertake learning related to prescribing within a Clinical Management Plan. You will practice examination techniques and will undertake a formative examination which will be peer reviewed in order to prepare you for the examination element of the assessment. Directed study utilising the VLE, e-learning@tees, will enable you to further develop numeracy skills which will support preparation for the examination. To further support formative numeracy development you have access to the Library Tees drug calculations workshops at the following link:

6 and the Standardised Numeracy Assessment Process You will have access to a wide range of web-based resources through the VLE for example News Feeds via the National Institute for Health & Care Excellence (NICE) Medicines and prescribing support website and the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) website. You will be working in small groups using scenario-based examples of prescribing practice to prepare you, for example, to take an effective history and make diagnostic decisions which will influence your prescribing decision-making process. The integration of theory and practice will be strengthened by your ability to demonstrate the achievement of the practice outcomes. Learning in practice will be related to the achievement of these practice outcomes: you and your DMP will document progress in three meetings during your supervised practice. These will be included in your Portfolio and verified by your DMP. Registrants who will be prescribing for children must have a DMP who is experienced and competent in prescribing for children. The LME will support midwifery DMP s this will include attending the DMP mentor preparation workshops. 5 MODULE AIMS AND OUTCOMES Aims The aims of the module are to: To facilitate the development of knowledge and skills required by professionals to prescribe as independent prescribers and/or supplementary prescribers. Enable you to apply knowledge to clinical practice demonstrating the ability to prescribe safely and effectively in order to meet prescribing standards set by the Nursing and Midwifery Council/Health & Care Professions Council. Outcomes On completion of this module you will be able to: Knowledge and Understanding 1 Synthesise and critically appraise the legal and professional framework for accountability and responsibility in relation to prescribing practice. 2 Demonstrate a comprehensive and detailed knowledge of drug actions in prescribing practice (pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics). 3 Synthesise and critically appraise the factors impacting upon and influencing safe and ethical prescribing practice. Cognitive and Intellectual Skills 4 Synthesise and evaluate relevant evidence, sources of information and decision support systems to inform prescribing practice.

Key Transferable Skills 16 Demonstrate a critical reflective approach to continuing professional development.

8 6 RESPONSIBILITIES The Designated Medical Practitioner (DMP) Your DMP has a fundamental role in educating and assessing your practice. They will be invited to a mentor preparation workshop which will support their preparation for the role. The generic nature of the module content will facilitate you to apply your knowledge and understanding to safely prescribe within your own area of practice speciality. Your DMP will be further develop and guide your development. Your DMP is responsible for: Establishing a Learning Contract in partnership with you. Documenting progress on three occasions during supervised practice and provide any additional opportunities if required to achieve outcomes in a timely manner. Planning a learning programme which will provide the opportunity for you to meet your learning objectives and gain competency in prescribing. Facilitating learning by encouraging your critical thinking and reflection. Providing dedicated time and opportunities for you to observe how you conduct a consultation/interview with patient/clients and/or parents/carers and the development of a management plan. Allowing opportunities for you to carry out consultations and suggest clinical management and prescribing options, which are then discussed with you. Helping ensure that you integrate theory with practice. Taking opportunities to allow in-depth discussion and analysis of clinical management using a random case analysis approach, when patient/client care and prescribing behaviour can be examined further. Facilitating, observing, and assessing your performance over the continuous period of supervised practice. Assessing and verifying that, by the end of the course, you are competent to assume the prescribing role. It is the DMP s responsibility to decide whether or not you are making satisfactory progress towards meeting your practice outcomes for non-medical prescribing. This decision will be based upon whether or not the practice outcomes have been met. If during the practice days you are deemed by your DMP to be failing to make sufficient progress towards achievement of these outcomes they should inform both you and Debbie in order to consider if strategies can be put in place to support you. Working in collaboration with LME to support midwife students. Identify and document any cause for concern, e.g. concerns regarding competence acquisition, or conduct, or unsafe practice, and discuss at the earliest possible stage with Bernadette or Debbie. Unsafe practice can for example include repeated episodes of making an incorrect diagnosis, recommending incorrect treatment options or incorrect completion of prescriptions. A Cause for Concern Form should be completed. If you demonstrate any concern relating to patient safety you should be aware that the School of Health & Social Care may consider the Fitness to Practise process. Details of this process can be found in your Student Essential Guide.

9 The contribution of your DMP in relation to providing you with supervision, support, and opportunities to develop competence in practice is therefore crucial. The criteria for fulfilling this role are that the DMP: Have normally had at least three years recent clinical experience for a group of patient/clients in the relevant field of practice. Work within a GP practice and are either vocationally trained or in possession of a certificate of equivalent experience from the Joint Committee for Postgraduate Training in General Practice Certificate or is a specialist registrar, clinical assistant or a consultant within a NHS Trust or other NHS employer. Have the support of the employing organisation or GP practice to act as the DMP who will provide supervision, support, and opportunities to develop competence in prescribing practice. Have some experience or training in teaching and/or supervising in practice. Normally work with the student prescriber. If this is not possible (such as in nurse-led services or community pharmacy), arrangements can be agreed for another doctor to take on the role of the DMP, provided the above criteria are met and the learning in practice relates to the clinical area in which the student prescriber will ultimately be carrying out their prescribing role. The Lead Midwife for Education (LME) Jayne Cornforth (LME) will ensure that if you are a midwife you are provided with additional support. You will meet Jayne in week one of the module (if not on application) and will be expected to meet with her on a regular basis. The LME works closely with the module team and contributes to your assessment. The LME may work with your DMP if required and will contribute to the DMP preparation workshops. The Student Your role is to take responsibility for your own learning and demonstrate a willingness to develop both academically and in practice. You will be expected to discuss your own learning needs with your DMP and you should undertake honest self-assessment, articulate you re learning needs, seek and accept formative feedback from your DMP and module team. You are expected to recognise and appraise your own abilities and limitations. Module Team It is recognised that the demands of this module are challenging and that the intensity of the assessment is demanding. The module team will provide substantial support to you and your DMP both in an academic and pastoral capacity. If you require additional support you should discuss this with Bernadette or Debbie at an early stage who will signpost you to the most appropriate student support.

10 7 ASSESSMENT STRATEGY Formative You will undertake formative assessment through peer debate in the classroom, relevant and relating to prescribing practice, a workshop-based peer review assessment of supplementary prescribing in Week 3 and a peer reviewed formative examination in Week 10.

14 11 GUIDELINES FOR COMPLETION OF YOUR PORTFOLIO The purpose of your Portfolio is to provide a framework through which you can record and demonstrate your progress and achievements whilst studying Nonmedical Prescribing. In order to demonstrate achievement of the module, you are required to present a Portfolio of evidence that provides a documentary record of your learning and how this relates to the module outcomes. The Portfolio keeping process includes: Reflection upon existing knowledge and skills. Exploration of the module outcomes. Identification of learning needs. Identification of learning opportunities in your supervised practice area and who can support you. Matching learning opportunities to learning needs. Development of a plan or Learning Contract to meet learning needs. Implementation of the plan/learning Contract and collection of supporting evidence. Keeping a Practice Learning Log. Reflection upon learning and achievement of practice module outcomes. Presentation of the Portfolio at the end of the module. How to Compile your Portfolio Stage 1 - Identifying Your Learning Needs The first step is to look at the practice outcomes and consider what you need to learn to achieve each one. You must have time aside with your DMP at the beginning of the practice placement and review the practice outcomes, consider how these can be achieved and consider your own self-assessment and how your learning needs can be met. A Learning Contract will be developed to show how these outcomes can be achieved. This contract can also be used as a framework for your critical reflection of learning. This meeting must be documented by both you and your DMP on the initial meeting form. The Learning Contract template can be found in in the Portfolio document section. Stage 2 - Feedback You must both set aside time to review progress and provide feedback on progress. This should be undertaken regularly and should involve discussing cases from practice experiences and reflecting upon and critically analysing. It is important that you consider how theoretical concepts are used to inform these discussions. This stage also includes assessment of your progress towards competence in relation to practice outcomes and you and your DMP must document this using the intermediate meeting form.

15 Stage 3 Sign off At the end of the module, you will submit your Portfolio for verification of the award. Your DMP must sign and date the practice outcomes have been met. It is important that you provide a short statement on how you have achieved each outcome on the table of practice outcomes in the Portfolio. You should both also provide evidence of a final meeting using the final meeting form and final sign off point. Your Portfolio must include the following: Formulation and completion of a Learning Contract which identifies strategies to meet your individual learning needs in relation to the module outcomes. Agreed and verified dates of supervised practice. A Practice Log that records practice experiences. Six case studies from Learning Logs which demonstrate prescribing and prescription writing in a range of settings one must include demonstration of prescribing for children. An arrangement should be made for you to spend time with a prescriber who does prescribe for children if your DMP does not. Throughout the assessment registrants who will prescribe for children must also demonstrate recognition of the unique implications and developmental context of the anatomical and physiological differences between neonates, children, and young people. Reflective analysis of episodes from your Practice Logs demonstrating critical appraisal skills and informed decision making. Completion of three P-Formulary work sheets. Three Clinical Management Plans drawn up whilst in supervised practice this should be undertaken in consultation with your DMP on successful completion of the module if you are a nurse, physiotherapist or podiatrist you will be able to prescribe independently and on a supplementary basis. Radiography students can currently only prescribe on a supplementary basis. Clinical Management Plans completed within the workshop with peers and peer review feedback sheet. Evidence of achievement of the written examination. Evidence of satisfactory completion of a period of supervised practice experience. Must be 12 days. Your DMP must document progress on at least three occasions during the practice learning and provide a final sign off of competence. Your manager must sign the declaration which is detailed at the end of the practice outcomes document. Evidence of gaining consent and maintaining confidentiality. It is likely that you will include evidence which relates to particular individuals, informed consent must be obtained, anonymity must be ensured, and the School of Health & Social Care Consent Form completed. Your DMP is responsible for ensuring and verifying that consent has been agreed and that confidentiality is maintained. You have a professional responsibility to ensure that consent has been agreed and that confidentiality is maintained. Verification of your DBS status. All the practice outcomes must be achieved by the end of the module and the Portfolio will be submitted directly to the Bernadette and Debbie on the final day of

16 the module for verification. If you are referred on one or more of the practice outcomes you must demonstrate achievement of this outcome at the designated point of negotiated re-assessment. If this is the case you must devise a Learning Contract and action plan with your DMP and Bernadette or Debbie in order to address the outcomes involved. The decision regarding whether or not you have achieved this Learning Contract will be made by your DMP. The Practice Log can also be used as a tool to guide reflection on practice. By recording experiences, in particular those that create uncertainty and conflict, an opportunity for reflection on action can be created. Such reflection articulates the factors that underpin decision-making and facilitates the identification of alternative approaches. However it is also essential that sustained observation in the practice environment is used to provide evidence of competence in practice. It is important that you should collect your Portfolio of evidence on an on-going basis to demonstrate achievement of the practice outcomes. All Portfolio components must be submitted. Your Portfolio will be submitted to the module team at the end of the module. You will complete a receipt for submission of assignment form. This form will be signed by the member of the module team receiving the Portfolio and the carbon copy retained by you.

42 Obtaining Informed Consent Rationale As part of the assessment and/or portfolio keeping process students are sometimes required to illustrate the relationship between theory and practice by using information relating to specific clients, e.g. care studies, care plans, assessments, projects and reflective pieces. In these circumstances obtaining informed consent is essential. In order to demonstrate compliance with statutory/professional codes of conduct the attached Obtaining Informed Consent Declaration Form must be completed and submitted with the work. Failure to obtain consent and/or submit the completed declaration form will result in automatic referral/failure and could lead to disciplinary action. A slide show relating to Confidentiality and Informed Consent can be accessed via e- learning@tees. It is the student s responsibility to review this at least annually. Responsibilities The Lecturer supervising a piece of work for which consent is required is responsible for: Directing the student to the e-learning@tees site where they can access a copy of the Obtaining Informed Consent Declaration Form and Guidance Notes prior to the assessment. Drawing the student s attention to the Access to Health Records Act (1990), in particular: o o Section 5.3, which states that third parties may only access patients, records provided that information given by the patient and/or the results of examinations/investigations will not be disclosed. Section 5.1 which states that the information obtained from the patients health records must not be used in a way as to cause the patient serious physical or mental harm, or that the patient may be identified. Drawing the student s attention to the Data Protection Act (1998) in particular: o Reviewing the rationale and each point set out in the Obtaining Informed Consent Declaration Form. o Reminding the student that the completed Declaration Form must accompany the assignment when submitted.

43 The Student The student is responsible for: Informing the Practice Mentor/Supervisor of the nature of the assignment/ portfolio and the requirement to complete an Obtaining Informed Consent Declaration Form. Seeking informed consent from the patient/client and/or patient/client representative and/or carers, and/or colleagues/staff in accordance with points 1 4, as set in the Declaration Form. Completing and signing the Declaration Form with the Practice Mentor/ Supervisor. Ensuring the completed Declaration Form is submitted with the assignment by the required date. Ensuring that a pseudonym is used for client/patients, relatives, carers and staff. The use of the pseudonym should be documented within the assignment and clearly identified on the Informed Consent and Declaration Form. Ensuring that any documentation submitted as part of the assessment will be rewritten and not photocopied e.g. care plans, assessment forms. Practice Mentor/Supervisor The Practice Mentor/Supervisor is responsible for: 1. Providing the student with appropriate support and guidance whilst obtaining informed consent from the patient/client and/or patient/client representative and/or colleagues/staff. 2. Signing the Obtained Informed Consent Declaration Form, if s/he is confident that the criteria have been met.

44 Student Name Cohort/Year of Entry Personal Tutor Obtaining Informed Consent Declaration Form Declaration by Student In order to comply with the requirements of the Access to Health Records Act (1990) and the Data Protection Act (1998), I confirm I have discussed the following with the patient/client* and/or the patient s/client s* representative, e.g. parent/guardian, next of kin, carers, colleagues/staff and have obtained permission to use personal relevant data: * Delete as appropriate The nature of the assessment. The reason I wish to use data relating to the patient/client. That client/patient, carers, colleagues/staff anonymity and confidentiality in relation to any material gathered or produced in the course of this work will be maintained e.g.: o For all persons mentioned pseudonyms and/or general titles will be used, not individual names. o The patient/client address and any information which could identify their address will be omitted. o General terms will be used to describe occupation/workplace/school/ hobbies etc. o Time, date and location of admission will be omitted. o Information which may identify the patient/client/relatives/carer and colleagues/staff will be omitted from documentation e.g. care plans, pathways of care, risk assessments etc. Those who will have access to the work in addition to myself e.g. typist, teaching staff, other students, Board of Examiners.

45 INFORMED CONSENT DECLARATION FORM N.B. Patient/Client/Carer/Colleagues/Staff column should be completed by using a Code e.g. Client/Patient A, Client/Patient B in order to provide anonymity and confidentiality. If names are used in the first column a pseudonym must be used and it must be clearly stated that this is a pseudonym. The pseudonyms used must be the same as those referred to in the assignment.
