News summary


Winner of Hospital Pharmacist credit for learning series announced

Ruth Fleet, senior surgical pharmacist at Royal Preston Hospital has been awarded the prize for achieving the highest score in the sixth Hospital Pharmacist credit for learning series. Her prize was a cheque of £500 given towards attendance at a pharmaceutical conference or course of her choice.

Mrs Fleet received her prize on 29 May at an award lunch arranged by Faulding Pharmaceuticals, sponsors of the series.

Speaking to Hospital Pharmacist, Mrs Fleet, who has been doing the credit for learning exercises since their inception, said that she found the credit for learning exercises satisfying as they helped to ensure that her reading was purposeful. Mrs Fleet plans to use her prize to attend the United Kingdom Clinical Pharmacy Association symposium in November.

The HP credit for learning exercises, which appear in alternate issues of the journal, are multiple choice questions on the special feature in that issue. The marking of answers is carried out by the College of Pharmacy Practice.

All pharmacists who complete the exercises receive a certificate of completion.
