This accessible textbook provides a comprehensive resource for healthcare students and professional students studying non-medical prescribing, taking into account the Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) competency framework for non-medical prescribing.

Non-Medical Prescribing: A Course Companion includes chapters on the context of non-medical prescribing; pharmacology; professional, legal and ethical issues; psychological influences; working in multidisciplinary teams; working with patients with complex conditions and co-morbidities; understanding antibiotics and resistances; prescription writing; and the role of non-medical prescribing leads.

Each chapter acts as a self-contained study module, with key facts and areas highlighted, illustrative clinical cases to link learning to practice, and a self-test quiz.

Designed for professionals from a range of non-medical disciplines including nursing, midwifery, pharmacy, physiotherapy and occupational therapy, this book can be used at both pre- and post-registration level.
