LEVEL 4

In this self directed module you will develop your knowledge and skills in relation to pharmacology, health numeracy and medicines calculations. You will be introduced to two e-learning platforms SCRIPT and safemedicate.

There will be opportunities to explore the types of drug calculations commonly used in practice and engage with them to find areas of challenge. You will examine the base constituents of common drugs and administration routes, to understand how interactions occur. The module will also explore methods to minimise the risk of drug calculation and administration errors. You will have unlimited access to the two virtual platforms to practice calculations formatively.
