Virtual Outcomes
N&W ICB and SNEE ICB have commissioned Virtual outcomes for all contractors across Norfolk and Suffolk for this year. This is a fantastic training resource that is now available to all contractors free of charge. The training available on Virtual Outcomes and covers topics relevant to public health campaigns, HLP and the new contract.
Virtual Outcomes is committed to delivering high quality online training and support for community pharmacies.
Virtual Outcomes produces short (15 mins) online training courses and podcasts on a variety of subjects including smoking, mental health, GDPR, and Flu. The topics support both national and local public health campaigns.
Team members have an opportunity to gain a certificate which can be used as evidence of training for the GPHC and / or Healthy living Pharmacy file. Each course has links to websites for resources to support campaigns as well as hints and tips on setting up displays.
Access to the training is straight forward and Pharmacy staff just need to add the ODS code (F Code) of the pharmacy they work in to access all of the FREE training resources.
New modules are made available throughout the year and these will include training modules to support delivery of the new Community Pharmacist Consultation Service and other aspects of the new contract including Sepsis and Safeguarding. There are also modules available to support delivery of the National Public Health campaigns. A calendar of current and planned training is available here along with information about the back catalogue.
CPNS hopes that contractors find this resource for all pharmacy team members useful. If you have any questions or feedback, please contact the CPNS team info@cpns.org.uk
