We find that pharmacies most commonly request locums who have completed:

  • Flu and Covid Vaccination Training

    • Info in this article about what's needed to work these shifts

  • CPCS

  • NMS

  • DMS

    • For this ASA first have to complete a 2hr training session, which you can find here. After you've done this, you can complete the Declaration of Competence, which you can find here.

  • Repeat Dispensing

  • Safeguarding Adults and Children Level 2

Please note some courses take longer to complete than others and there can be a temporary lockout period if you fail the tests. Make sure to give them your full attention to avoid this happening.
