General Practice Nurses play an essential role in delivering care through general practice, taking on a spectrum of different responsibilities within patient care to support the ever-increasing workload within GP surgeries, clinics and health centres. Often working autonomously, as part of a multidisciplinary team, general practice nurses assess, advise and treat patients of all different ages and backgrounds, and therefore may encounter almost every aspect of patient care during their work. This book is specifically aimed at GP Nurses undertaking independent prescribing within the complexity of contemporary primary healthcare. It offers a complete overview for those taking on an independent nurse prescribing course as well as those nurses who have already qualified as independent prescribers. Case studies written for the general practice setting will help nurses build on the skills and practice they have already developed as they take on the independent prescribing role, and will also be of value to more experienced or advanced nurses hoping to refresh their existing knowledge. Written by a range of specialist authors, the book also covers the theoretical knowledge and context associated with independent prescribing, enabling GP nurses to practise competently and confidently and deliver clinically effective, person-centred care.

Management controls on prescribing have greater impact on a GP's freedom of choice than on any other matter requiring clinical judgement. However, in order to deliver the most effective patient care, the GP needs a much broader base of knowledge including, for example, an understanding of basic pharmacological principles and the process of conducting clinical trials. This book deals systematically with the practical aspects of prescribing throughout primary care. It provides the busy GP with readily-accessible information so that the benefit to patients and the pratice can be maximized.

The National Health Service spends £8 billion a year on prescription drugs in primary care in England. This has grown 60% in real terms over the last decade and the trend continues to be upward. This report examines how the money could be spent more efficiently, without compromising clinical outcomes. It looks principally at the scope for more cost-effective prescribing; supporting the GPs and PCTs in getting better value for money; and the wastage of drugs. For four groups of drugs (which account for 19% of the total drugs bill), it finds a wide disparity in prescribing behaviour. It estimates that if all PCTs attained the standard of the best 25%, £200 million could be saved. The analysis shows that there are several mechanism to improve value for money. They include: personalised communication with GPs from local experts, financial and practical incentives, and involving the whole primary and local care community in decisions about drug policy. Wastage of drugs is a problem but the level is not monitored and the uptake of initiatives to reduce the amount of waste is low. Assessing whether local prescribing volumes are consistent with clinical need is complex, but combining prescription data with local prevalence data can provide benchmark information.
