What sort of training will be provided for nurses to enable them to qualify as supplementary prescribers ?
Nurse training for supplementary prescribing is based on that for ‘Extended Formulary’ independent nurse prescribers, with the addition of a module on supplementary prescribing. HEIs will prepare course curricula that the Nursing and Midwifery Council can be asked to approve. Further information on training issues can be found elsewhere on this website.
