The GPhC issued the following statement in response to the announcement by Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt regarding the launch of an initiative focused on reducing prescribing and medication errors:
‘The GPhC welcomes this initiative to explore ways to improve medication safety still further. Pharmacists and pharmacy technicians play a vital role not only in ensuring the safe supply of medicines, but also in working with patients, carers and other healthcare professionals to guard against a range of medication-related risks, including those to do with prescribing.
The Scottish Government today published a refreshed strategy for pharmacy in Scotland called Achieving Excellence in Pharmaceutical Care: A Strategy for Scotland. Responding to the publication, Duncan Rudkin, Chief Executive of the GPhC, said:
“We welcome the publication of Achieving Excellence in Pharmaceutical Care, and support its goals for further improvements to the health and care of patients in Scotland.
We are pleased to announce the names of the 2208 pre-registration trainee pharmacists who passed their registration assessment in June.
