Society inspectors organise new series of presentations for preregistration
trainees
Each year, the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's professional standards inspectors organise a series of informal half-day presentations for preregistration trainees. The aim is to give trainees an understanding of the support
available to pharmacists from the inspectors and from the Society’s
directorate responsible for legal affairs and pharmacists’ fitness
to practise.
The sessions are open to all trainees, who may attend the presentation
of their own choice.
There is no charge for attending the presentations, but any travel costs
will have to be met by the trainee or employer.
The presentations take place at a range of venues across Britain. Most
will be early in the new year, but a session in Crewe is scheduled for
Monday 11 October 2004. It will take place from 9.30am to 12.30pm at
Leighton Hospital, Middlewich Road, Crewe, Cheshire (trainees should
report to the hospital pharmacy for directions to the conference room),
and will be given by Steven Gascoigne, the inspector for that area.
Advance booking is not necessary. The venue is about four miles from
Crewe railway station, from which buses run frequently. The hospital
has a car park.
Details of all the presentations are to be mailed to preregistration
trainees and tutors with the Society’s next preregistration bulletin,
which is to be sent out in November. The information will also be placed
on the preregistration
training page of the Society’s website.
