Pharmacy professionals are increasingly moving into advanced roles, including in primary care. In England, the publicly funded Pharmacy Integration Fund (PhIF) enabled employment and training of pharmacy professionals in new patient-facing roles, including general practice and care homes. In recognition of the need for support and supervision during work-based learning and building on established support structures in medicine and nursing, one of the providers of PhIF funded learning developed a supervision structure which mirrors arrangements for postgraduate medical specialty training. This paper describes what informed this supervision model, with a particular focus on educational supervision, its delivery, and the training which was developed to support supervisors. This supervision enabled pharmacy professionals moving into primary care to practise safely, manage workplace challenges, extend their roles and make progress with their education. This model illustrates the benefits of supervision in supporting post-registration learning to facilitate the development of advanced patient-facing clinical roles.
药剂师越来越多地担任高级职务,包括在初级保健领域。在英格兰,公共资助的 Pharmacy Integration Fund(PhIF)使药剂师能够在新的面向患者的角色中就业和接受培训,包括全科医生和护理院。认识到在工作场所学习期间需要支持和监督,并借鉴医学和护理领域已有的支持结构,PhIF 资助学习的提供者之一开发了一种监督结构,该结构反映了研究生医学专业培训的安排。本文介绍了这一监督模式的依据,特别关注教育监督、其实施以及为支持监督者而开发的培训。这种监督使进入初级保健领域的药剂师能够安全地执业、管理工作场所的挑战、扩展他们的角色并在教育方面取得进展。这种模式说明了监督在支持注册后学习以促进高级面向患者的临床角色发展方面的好处。
