Course Overview: Medication Awareness

The effects of medication errors can be serious for organisations, and they’re not as rare as you might think. The number of medication errors in the United Kingdom exceeds 200 million each year, which is why anyone dealing with medication must be familiar with different medication types, forms, and classifications in order to ensure patients’ safety. All of these features have been incorporated into this online Medication Awareness course.

Besides teaching learners how to administer and manage medications safely, we teach them about their responsibilities as care workers, their patients’ needs, and how to keep records.

Who is the Medication Awareness course for?

Health care workers who administer medications can benefit from medication awareness training.

Course Content

In this course you will learn about:

Medicine classifications
Medicine-related legislation
Administering medications correctly

Disposal of medications and their storage
Information sharing and record keeping
CQC’s description of your role

There is no expiry date for this certificate, however you may want to refresh the course periodically. The timescale for a refresh depends on the type of course that is being taken and the nature of your business. Ideally, the refresh regularity should be based on a thorough risk assessment of your business and tailored to the unique needs of your organisation and customers (if you are unsure how to complete a risk assessment, you can learn more by completing our Risk Assessment Awareness course).

If you are looking for a general rule for refresh training, every 12-18 months is good practice for the courses that Learn Q offer (we will also email you a reminder when you approach the recommended refresh date).

Please keep in mind the following exclusions:

In the case of an internal incident- if there has been an incident within your business where an employee, a customer or a client has been injured then this then means that it is important to refresh all colleagues with the relevant training to minimise the chance of it happening again.
In the case of an external incident- if there has been an incident outside of your business, but within your industry then this could be a time to refresh relevant training. Of course, this will only be applicable if the incident is severe, and you think that it poses a risk to your business and those who work within it and those who are clients. At the very least, it is going to be worthwhile refreshing their Health and Safety training.
If a process changes- if an internal process has changed, then it is going to be a good time to refresh any training that relates to this process. Particularly if you feel that it might impact what has been previously learnt.
If you bring in new equipment- if you introduce new equipment, you should provide training that is relevant to this change. Even if the change is slight; after all, prevention is always better than cure.
If there has been a change in the environment- if you move premises or have some changes made to where you work, then you will need to think about some of the training. This includes COSHH and Health and Safety.

This is an ‘entry level’ course, meaning there are no barriers for entry. You do not need any prior learning, qualifications or certificates to take this course and it is suitable for all.
