Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

  1. Discuss the purpose of the session, noting that chemistry is the foundation of pharmacy and explain the key concepts of pharmacokinetics and basic chemistry principles.
  2. Describe how medications are metabolised and eliminated from the human body.
  3. Describe how physiological factors affect medication use.
  4. Discuss the fundamentals of drug to drug, drug to food, drug to alcohol interactions.
  5. Describe how specific medications react to physical environments.
  6. Describe why specific medications require different routes of administration.
  7. Explain which medications are vulnerable to pH degradation.
  8. Explain why common medications produce unwanted reactions when given together.
  9. Present information on medication shelf-life considerations.
  10. Discuss what information to convey to patients about the administration of dosage forms.
