Description
As of October 1, 2021, immunizing pharmacists in North Carolina now have the authority to administer long-acting injectable medications to patients age 18 and older pursuant to a prescription. This new authority marks a long-awaited win for our profession and addresses a clear public health need that will undoubtedly provide great value to our patients. According to NCBOP rule, immunizing pharmacists who wish to exercise this new authority will require advanced training in long-acting injectables.
In collaboration with Campbell University College of Pharmacy and UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, NCAP is pleased to bring you an ACPE accredited virtual learning experience specifically designed to meet statutory and NCBOP rules for pharmacists in administering long-acting injectables.
This 5-hour training is geared specifically with the busy pharmacist in mind offering bite-sized training modules for completion in 45 minutes or less.
