ntroduction
This half day live, on-line, instructor led course is open to all Health Care providers (HPCs) who are currently working with clients that require Prostap injections. The course requirements are that the HCP has existing skills in sharps management such as phlebotomy and is receiving annual updates for immunisations and CPR and anaphylaxis.Β Β HCAs that attend this course will be undertaking advanced practice that recommends a minimum of two yearsβ experience in primary care and evidence of training to meetΒ national minimum standards.
AimsΒ
During this session we aim to provide HCAs with:
- the knowledge and skills required for the procedure of administering Prostap injections.
- resources, education and awareness of the legal issues, accountability and prescribing through delegation.
- the mechanisms to be signed off as competent by a trained nurse in their workplace and follow the protocols and framework supplied for safe practice.
Course Content
- The role of the HCA in extended practice
- What is Prostap?
- The uses of Prostap in patient condition management
- Undertaking a risk assessment of the patient prior to injection
- How is Prostap prescribed / legal issues / prescriptions: PSD
- What are the side effects / contraindications / follow up care / anaphylaxis
- Record keeping /documentation/communication with patients / capacity / consent
- Safe handling and storage of injections; including infection control
- Injection administration and techniques including practical session
- Protocols/ competencies and supervised practice by mentor
The course will provide all necessary documentation for the administration of the injection to include:
- A competency framework to use with the mentor in practice,
- A protocol for the administration of Prostap injections
- An example of a Patient Specific Directive (PSD) for prescribing and legal purposes.
Please note that it is really important that practitioners have the fundamental knowledge and competency required to enable them to progress to vaccine specific courses and for treatment injectables such as Flu, Pneumococcal, Shingrix, Vitamin B12 & Prostap.
