National Prescribing Competencies Framework review
23 Aug 2024
The review aims to ensure the framework supports Quality Use of Medicines and that:
- it remains fit for purpose, contemporary, efficient, accurate and reflects current and emerging trends in education and multi-profession practices, and
- it continues to describe competencies required to contribute to safe and person-centred prescribing.
The framework was originally developed and hosted by NPS MedicineWise. Published in April 2021, it describes the competencies and expectations for appropriate, safe and effective prescribing across relevant health professions.
Ahpra will be conducting targeted and public consultations in the next 12 months as part of the review. The final updated version of the framework will be submitted to the Department for approval before publication.
While the framework will be hosted on the Ahpra website, the Department will continue to own the document as part of the Quality Use of Diagnostics, Therapeutics and Pathology Program.
Read more about the review of the framework on the Ahpra website.
