This practical, interactive workshop is designed specifically to help pharmacy technicians now authorised to use Patient Group Directions (PGDs) step confidently into your expanding role. You’ll gain the tools and confidence to make safe, informed supply and non-supply decisions, removing the uncertainty that often comes with new clinical responsibilities.
As NHS services grow and more care is delivered through PGDs, pharmacy technicians play a vital role in meeting rising demand closer to home. This workshop helps you build the competence and assurance needed to take on these responsibilities, contribute to the NHS 10 Year Health Plan and drive better access, increased capacity, and high-quality person-centred care.
To complement this workshop, you can also book to attend online PGD support sessions to network with peers in a supportive, safe environment. Book a place here.
