Professor Dan J.

Now South African pharmacists have their very own CPD resource, brought to you by an expert editorial panel consisting of former Pharmaceutical Society of South Africa president Dr Johann Kruger, family physician Dr Martin de Villers and retail pharmacist Maria Marais.
With many years’ experience in hosting successful CPD programmes for medical doctors, MIMS is proud to introduce this specialised CPD resource for pharmacy professionals. The CPD programme works as follows: For example, you will read the article on asthma. The text covers all aspects of pathogenesis, OTC treatment, and reasons for referral in the pharmacy setting. You then have to explain how the “What do I need to know?” knowledge gap was overcome by self-study of the article.
The Pharmacist’s Guide to Clinical Care provides a concise, evidence-based guide to important clinical topics encountered by the pharmacist daily. It serves as a clinical and management guide, as well as a resource for continuing professional development (CPD).
Given that pharmacies are easily accessed by community members and often a first port of call for the unwell, it makes sense that the pharmacist’s role will be augmented in a changing South African healthcare system. Carrying out regular CPD activities will assist in preparing pharmacists for this increased responsibility, as well as keeping them abreast of developments in the profession. Topics in the Guide, structured according to Ethics and Pharmacy-Assisted Therapy, have been carefully chosen by pharmacy experts to fulfil this need. They comprise – among others – headaches, abdominal complaints, painful joints, respiratory conditions, dermatological problems, ophthalmic challenges and medication in the elderly.
