The quality systems in aseptic services detail roles & responsibilities including chief pharmacist

I support the enabling legislation that will see services improve through the professionalism of pharmacy technicians and pharmacists

Legislation is the enabler, regulation and professional standards are the framework to support practice. Let’s not look back in 20years and think how we didn’t take the opportunity to utilise the value of a regulated profession in pharmacy 👏for our patients and services 👍
We have an opportunity to ensure Pharmacy Technicians’ knowledge, skills and expertise to deliver more as registered healthcare professionals is aided by legislation, regulation and professional standards. Responding to the DHSC consultation is important. gov.uk/government/consultati…
#PharmacyTechnicians working in #TechnicalServices, we are aware there have been inflammatory, emotive and derogatory statements issued leaving Pharmacy Technicians feeling devalued.
As your #ProfessionalLeadershipBody we want to assure you we are there to support you.

Pharmacy Technicians have valuable skills and experience to support the safe, efficient and quality supply of medicines within Aseptic Units

Such a disappointing response when #pharmacytechnicians with the right training and experience are more than capable of carrying g out this time and in some places are all but doing so already – at North West, England
The @the_pda says pharmacy technicians do not have the "clinical knowledge" needed to supervise hospital aseptic facilities

Very poor @PharmDeclares and @FMLM_UK
#NonInclusive
Why are Pharmacy Technicians "being investigated"?
Since 2011 it has been a legal requirement to be registered like pharmacists with @TheGPhC
@APTUK1 have many members in senior leadership positions in the NHS

Worked for 43 years as a Pharmacy Technician then pharmacist, in S10 & MHRA units, on wards & as Superintendent & Chief Pharmacist
I support supervision in aseptic facilities because I have witnessed how well the safe quality systems work including clinical checks by pharmacists
APTUK Technical Services Branch retweeted
#pharmacytechnicians are more than capable of running an aseptic unit and managing QMS …. working alongside authorised pharmacists (as would still be required). Yet another disappointing but not surprising example of #professionalprotectionism
The @the_pda says pharmacy technicians do not have the "clinical knowledge" needed to supervise hospital aseptic facilities
