Prescribing Safety Assessment Course

PSA Course 1

We believe strongly that the best Prescribing Safety Assessment course should be provided completely free. This outstanding PSA preparation series has been put together by Dr Sona Petrosyan who is dually qualified in Pharmacy & Medicine.

The format of the course is largely case-based questions with poll and chat-based answers helping to cover aspects of the PSA blueprint.

So helpful and many practice questions!

There were a range of topics that I wasn't too confident about before taking this course. Now my understanding is much better and the number of tips and tricks of using the BNF is extremely useful. If you're preparing for the PSA I highly recommend this course, I have mine in a few days and I feel better prepared for it.
