The variety and number of non-medical practitioners identified for
prescribing activity is growing rapidly. Across the country,
universities have validated prescribing programmes designed for
generic health care practice with a distance-learning component.
Towards Prescribing Practice offers readers a
comprehensive guide to the principles and practice of prescribing.
The subject matter relates to the government content standards for
study programmes and takes its cue from recent research in
prescribing and patient care in practice. This book embraces the
perennial core principles of prescribing practice, management and
leadership.
Content is organised to facilitate progressive learning, with
space allocated in each chapter to practice application through
discussion and exercises. The early inclusion of a section on
patient-centred planning and concordance enables the reader to
assimilate new knowledge within an individualised care approach.
The final three chapters are written from different clinical
perspectives: mental health, palliative care and emergency care,
providing assistance to specific areas of prescribing practice.
