    These resources are designed to support you whilst carrying out your day to day duties with the public. You’ll find them useful if you’re preparing for assessment for a SVQ in Social Service and Healthcare (e.g. "Administer Medication to Individuals") or the Professional Development Award, "Administration of Medication".

    The smartphone resource is also intended to be a day to day reference tool but it shouldn’t be considered as a ‘training course’.

    • Web based learning modules

      This resource is a suite of three modules covering principles and good practice, understanding medication, and practical considerations when undertaking the safe administration of medication. It is important that you always link the content to your organisation's policies and procedures that relate to the safe administration of medication.

      It will run on mobile devices, such as tablets and smartphones. As it will resize according to the size of your screen, you may find the content difficult to read on smaller smartphone screens.


    • Smartphone app

      Our iPhone and Android smartphone apps have been designed to complement the learning modules and are available for download at the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

      The Apple iPhone version of the app includes Augmented Reality functionality which can assist workers in ensuring that they complete Medication Administration Record (MAR) forms correctly.  If you would like to try using this, please download the following example MAR form which will work with the app.

      Please note that these resources are intended to be a day to day reference tool but shouldn’t be considered a ‘training course’.
