Key Benefits
These resources support delivery of SIRCPPA008 Assist customers with products for gastro-intestinal conditions by helping learners approach customers according to pharmacy protocol and establish symptoms, duration, severity, other conditions and current medications. Trainers and assessors can use them to plan activities around referral to the pharmacist, recognising when Pharmacist Only Medicines may help, suggesting S2 and unscheduled products, explaining directions for use and offering lifestyle and self-care advice.
