Gateshead & South Tyneside Flu Training for 2018-19 Season

20/6/2018

 
Picture
Working with our colleagues at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital we are again delighted  to announce that we have agreed a series of training sessions for this years flu training.

In order to provide this years flu service you will need to ensure you have correct training.  


The pharmacist flu training cycle is over two years and you only need to attend a face to face training session every 2nd year.  In the interim year you still need to do a refresher / update training (Normally via an online course and assesment)

This year the LPC has worked with the QE to offer a competitivley priced training session that can be used for the refresher or face to face.

The advantage of using this as your refresher training means in the evening you will have completed the training required instead of having to do an online package and assessment.  This training will also provide you with a private PGD to use.

Please book using the forms below


Please note the training sessions will start at 6.30pm and there will only be light refreshments (Tea & Biscuits).  
Attendees may wish to bring a sandwich along.


Mon 23rd July  - QE Hospital Gateshead


Thurs 2nd August - QE Hospital Gateshead


​Tues 21st August - QE Hospital Gateshead

North Of Tyne, Gateshead and South Tyneside and Co Durham and Darlington LPCs have worked collaboratively to organise a couple of awareness raising sessions around the current consultation on GPhC’s proposals on how it plans to develop its approach to regulating pharmacies. 

We have arranged 2 venues on 2 different dates,  one North and one South of the combined LPC's area.  You are welcome to attend which ever meeting is most convenient to you. Both events will be identical

  • 26th June 2018 Ramside Hall, Durham
  • 27th June 2018 Holiday Inn, Seaton Burn

Use the booking forms below to register your place at the event.
 
Click here for full details of the consultation:  which began on 17 May and runs to 9 August.
 
In short GPhC is proposing the following key changes:
 
  • Moving to unannounced inspections
  • Changing inspection outcomes to:
    • Standards met
    • Standards not all met
  • Requiring all standards to be met to receive an overall ‘standards met’ outcome
  • Publishing inspection reports
  • Sharing examples of notable practice
 
Alison Hopkins, GPhC Inspector, will be presenting and will take you through the proposals and respond to queries.
 
Health Education England (HEE)
 
At the same event HEE will be presenting about their strategy for the future of pharmacy education, particularly in relation to pre-registration trainees and the Oriel system.
