Useful links
Integrated Dispensing Practice links together the skills and knowledge that students have developed throughout their degree to perform the fundamental skills required of pharmacists in practice. In a simulated-practice environment, students interact with patients and health providers to optimise health outcomes. In order to assist students to see the patient as a whole person within a personal and social, as well as medical context, specific patients are followed over an extended period of time. Interactions include responding to requests for prescription and non-prescription medicines. Learning is centred on developing the skills required to effectively manage medication-information and to record the outcomes of patient interactions. Verbal communication skills are developed in order to interact effectively with patients and health providers to elicit medication- related information and to provide advice, recommendations and support. Students integrate and reconcile various pieces of information to make an assessment of the appropriateness of medicine for a patient are also developed. Written communication skills are developed in order to: systematically document patient interactions; devise a current medication list; report incidents, write letters to prescribers; and issue certificates for absence from work.
