About This Course

Our medication awareness training will cover the administration, prescribing, managing and handling of medicines safely. It is crucial that staff understand the importance of assisting someone with their medication and how to keep themselves and the supported person safe with regard to this key task. 

 After this course staff will: 

• Be aware of the legal requirements related to administration of medication 

• Know the procedures for safe administration; representative of local policy, confidentiality and consent. 

• Know their responsibility in administration of medication and documenting this. 

We can also, upon request, provide in-depth training courses into dementia, stoma, palliative and end of life care.
