Independent and Supplementary Prescribing
An Essential Guide
«'I am delighted that the third edition of Independent and Supplementary Prescribing: An Essential Guide is now published. It all began with Neighbourhood Nursing report which I chaired in 1986, which was hugely valuable for community nurses, GPs, but above all the patients. With the strong support of The Royal College of Nursing, and others like Matt Griffiths and Molly Courtenay, it became embedded as an idea and a practice. Like all good ideas it grew, and other professions can now prescribe but healthcare changes fast and we must keep up-to-date. So, I warmly welcome this third edition building on the popularity of the first two. This book is essential reading for non-medical practitioners undertaking the prescribing course along with medical students learning to prescribe. With such valuable advice and educational materials the future is bright for better care for patients and skilled practitioners.' Baroness Julia Cumberlege, CBE, DL»
