Your legislative requirements

Overview

eLearning modules detailing legislative requirements in relation to QScript and the new Medicines and Poisons Act 2019 (the Act).

This package contains two eLearning modules designed to assist health practitioners to better understand and meet their legislative requirements under the new Medicines and Poisons Act 2019 (the Act) and subordinate regulations. “QScript and the Medicines and Poisons Act 2019” provides an overview of the new scheme including who is authorised to prescribe and dispense monitored medicines, the regulatory framework known as the Monitored Medicines Standard (MMS) and other background information about QScript.

“High-Risk Clinical Scenarios” takes an in-depth look at each high-risk scenario which can be triggered when using QScript. It outlines a health practitioner’s regulatory obligations under the new scheme and how they can be applied in practice, and is accredited for CPD with RACGP, ACRRM and APC.
