NHS REPEAT DISPENSING - CPPE

Using focal point Booklet 2
You will have already completed Booklet 1 to help you identify your own learning
needs, read the key information and then related it to your own area of practice and
professional development.
This booklet uses a case study and clinical vignettes to help you apply what you have
learnt so far and encourages you to measure the changes in your practice. We also
include some suggested answers to the learning activities.
If you are attending a learning community you will work through a more detailed
case study and some brief clinical vignettes with your professional colleagues, and
discuss your approach to the Directing change scenario that you chose from
Booklet 1. If you are using this focal point for self study, you may wish to work
through the activities by yourself or discuss your responses with a colleague.
