Faculty of paediatric pharmacy launched
A Faculty of Neonatal and Paediatric Pharmacy has
been formed from a collaboration between the College of Pharmacy Practice
and the Neonatal and Paediatric Pharmacists' Group. The faculty was launched
at a ceremony held in London on 25 March.
The new faculty is the second to be established
by the college, following the launch of the Faculty of Prescribing and
Medicines Management last year.
The purpose of the faculty is to support members
by offering access to education, training and accreditation in neonatal
and paediatric pharmacy.
Membership of the new faculty is open to all pharmacists
working in any area of practice covered by the faculty. Pharmacists join
the faculty as associate members, moving on to become full members after
demonstrating a certain level of competence. The faculty will be allocated
resources by the College to undertake administrative support and other
activities.
