What is Medication Administration Training?
Over 237 million medication errors are estimated to happen each year in the UK. That's a startling estimate, especially considering there is less than 70 million living in the country.
Medication administration training (Level 2) has been designed to help deal with this issue. Our training not only teaches your staff how to safely administer medication, but also how to store, dispose and understand it too.
Our Medication Administration course is perfect for every healthcare organisation who needs either refresher training or have new starters. Ensuring safety is everyone's responsibility and this course will help you and your team protect and support the people using your service.
This level two course is perfect for anyone handling and adminstrating medication. If you would like your staff to carryout audits, competency checks and order medication, a level 3 Medication Management course would be perfect for them. Find our Medication Management Training course here.
There are plenty of benefits to undertaking this course, from your staff understanding what medication is, how it works, the common medications used through to how to administer medication safely using the 6R's. But the benefits don't stop there, our course also covers how to administer eye drops, patches, controlled drugs and more!
Knowing you have properly trained staff, who have the knowledge, skills and understanding of medication administration is of a huge benefit. It will help reduce safeguarding incidents, hospitalisation and help your organisation's reputation.
