Course description
At a local level, there have been many minor ailment schemes developed in recent years. The services have been provided in a variety of healthcare settings, including pharmacist and nurse-led clinics in a GP practice. Community pharmacy schemes involve the encouragement of patients to consult their local pharmacist to be treated for minor ailments without seeing the GP.
The other course in the minor ailment series considers the management of pain and injury. Together these two modules cover a large proportion of the conditions for which you might provide a minor ailment service. The learning material provided will help you make a competent diagnosis and consider the clinical and cost-effective options for the management of individual patients presenting with these conditions.
