Designated Registered Nurse Prescribing - Metro Webinar
Update and overview for general practice
WA Health and WA Primary Health Alliance invite GPs, general practice staff and other interested primary health care professionals to learn more about the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia’s designated registered nurse prescribing (DRNP) endorsement and application in primary care settings.
Featuring expert presentations from the WA Chief Nursing and Midwifery Office, this webinar will explore the DRNP endorsement and regulatory requirements including:
- National roll-out and implementation, including legislative changes.
- Eligibility requirements for practice nurses.
- Clinical mentorship agreements.
- Prescriber partnership agreements.
- Clinical governance framework.
Given the evolving nature of this new endorsement, this webinar will not address operational matters relating to MBS billing, remuneration implications associated with additional qualifications, or specific clinical governance issues.
This webinar may provide valuable insights if you are:
- A practice nurse seeking endorsement.
- An independent prescriber (GP, NP) seeking clarity on mentor requirements.
- A general practice or Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service owner or manager wanting to understand organisational requirements to implement DRNP.
- A residential aged care home manager wanting to understand how the DRNP could apply in aged care.
To support meaningful and evidence-based Q&A, we invite you to submit questions when registering.
