Naman Julka-Anderson and Jo McNamara catch up with Jo Collins as part of the Education and Workforce Development Series (part 34).

To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points: 

1) Reflect on your knowledge of over the counter and prescribed medications a patient undergoing cancer may need as part of their treatment.

2) Consider linking in with your local pharmacy team and finding out ways to work collaboratively: supporting patients, available drug information resources, training and education opportunities or service improvement.

*Jo Collins recommends searching the SPS website before referring to the above as they regularly update documents/add new Q&As, and published medicines information very quickly becomes outdated. I’d also suggest discussing with your pharmacy team who can check with the manufacturer or review the literature for you- chances are they’ve been asked before, especially if they have a medicines information service.
