@WeNurses It is always important to have extra knowledge and education to help our nurses provide the best service possible #WeNurses
Debbie C @punc_sept17debs
@WeNurses Skills definitely beneficial but diagnosis may pile pressure on already stretched resources. #wenurses
Jessie @puncjessie
@WeNurses All ready.. #WeNurses
Jack @PUNC17jack
@WeNurses It could potentially ease the strain on other health professionals alongside gaining in knowledge for the future students #WeNurses
kellie harris @punc17kellie
@WeNurses And also lead to being more efficient #wenurses
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses I understand why they may want us to prescribe earlier but experience is needed first for a base knowledge #WeNurses
Jordan Coupland @punc16shortie
#WeNurses The change will allow for patients to access treatment faster, and in turn benefit the patient journey.
Sarah Davies @puncsal
I think any more training is aways going to be beneficial to nursing, although nurses should not be overloaded with responsibility #WeNurses https://t.co/kgQtAsHLLH

@WeNurses I think the extra skill will be useful to have in our careers as nurses, however I think it should be a choice #WeNurses
Bex @punc_bvc
@WeNurses My initial thought was, will it be beneficial to everyone considering the already high demands of the job? #wenurses
Andrea Silvestre @puncandrea
@WeNurses #WeNurses I think this is a good opportunity to utilise the NHS resources, which can also lead to a better quality of care.
Amy Nettleinghame @punc17amy
@WeNurses I believe gaining extra skills is very beneficial for nursing #wenurses
Katie Wills @punckatiewills
@WeNurses I feel it will benefit the profession, as it will ease acces of treatment for patients, which can lead to better quality of care #Wenurses
Andrea Silvestre @puncandrea
@WeNurses #WeNurses but as many have commented, it could put a bigger strain on nurses, which could lead to stress and low quality care

@WeNurses It will expand nursing knowledge and enable patients to receive treatment faster #WeNurses
Natalie Ainslie @punc17nat
@WeNurses It would be good for nurses to be able to prescribe, this could save time when dealing with patients, however more education would be needed. #WeNurses #NRS403
Beth Young @punc17_beth
@WeNurses I think it's good to have more knowledge and skills which will benefit many but not sure the extra pressure on nurses... #WeNurses
kellie harris @punc17kellie
@EllzSummary @WeNurses yes I do, which in my eyes would be an asset #wenurses
Tara Scotney @Punc_TaraS
@WeNurses It would be beneficial to have more skills to provide the patients with better quality care #WeNurses
Bex @punc_bvc
@PuncLasseterZoe @punc17kellie @WeNurses I agree. Faster service for patients from empowered nurses seems great. However long term, will patient centred care be diluted? #WeNurses
Natalie Ainslie @punc17nat
@WeNurses Possibly both the more knowledge and practice the better. #WeNurses
Geraline Ann Ramos @puncgeraline
Getting involve with #WeNurses discussion with very interesting topic about prescribing. 👍🏼#PUNC14 https://t.co/sWIbemwsMu
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses It's hard to tell what will & won't be beneficial until it comes into practice as with many other aspects of nurse education #wenurses
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@WeNurses I believe gaining new and extra skills will be very beneficial for nursing! #WeNurses

Lemarc John Espina @punc_lemarc13
@WeNurses Future prescribers will need proper base knowledge and practice which will be done through placements and in uni. #wenurses
kellie harris @punc17kellie
@PUNC_BvC @PuncLasseterZoe @WeNurses I don't think it will. The patients should always come first and if it does start to dilute then maybe we need to look at why #wenurses
Amy Nettleinghame @punc17amy
@flamingcopper @EllzSummary @WeNurses I agree, it would be a lot of knowledge to learn but I believe gaining extra skills is very beneficial for nursing #wenurses

Tara Scotney @Punc_TaraS
@WeNurses Future prescribers will need training and regular supervision’s to ensure that they are competent #WeNurses

@punc17gwyatt @WeNurses I agree, staff working together effectively is great. However, would this change confuse job roles between professionals? #WeNurses
Jack @PUNC17jack
@WeNurses The uni's will need to supply adequate knowledge of prescription and time in order to ensure correct practice when qualified #WeNurses
Shannon James @puncshanjames17
@WeNurses we need a good base knowledge, hopefully we’ll get it through placements!! https://t.co/YQCkaMQJ8W
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses Good support from NMC and good base knowledge from unis. Mangement would also be vital in terms of support #WeNurses
Andrea Silvestre @puncandrea
@WeNurses I think a readily available support from an experienced prescriber would be good #WeNurses though our support now is already in excellent!
Molly Waring @PUNC_MollyW
@WeNurses Future prescribers will need support in order to gain experience in this area and to also feel confident in decisions they make #WeNurses
Monica Tong @punc17monica
@WeNurses supported training from uni's & supportive mentors/supervisors for students to be signed off safely #wenurses
Katie Wills @punckatiewills
@WeNurses Future prescribers will need supervision during practice and be taught the foundation knowledge in university #WeNurses
kellie harris @punc17kellie
@PUNC17LauraL @sharp_pam @PUNC_BvC @PuncLasseterZoe @WeNurses I think you would need to be experienced, students have a lot to learn as it is. #wenurses #PUNC17Laural
Amanda Griffin @puncamanda89
@WeNurses I feel university's will have to provide the training to enable nurses to carry this skill forward into employment #Wenurses
Bex @punc_bvc
@WeNurses Considering the history of nurses, we need to remember that the role of a nurse is forever evolving #WeNurses

Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@WeNurses Personally I feel they will need a lot of reassurance to ensure they are competent at all times #WeNurses
Amy Nettleinghame @punc17amy
@WeNurses The university will have to provide us with more in depth teaching! #WeNurses
Jessholliday @Jessholliday1
#WeNurses I find prescribing hard when I can't see gp records as they are on a different system. Pt s miss out
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@Punc_TaraS @WeNurses It will have to be those woth the training like it is with students and newly qualified now. Mentors are the biggest support #WeNurses
Sophie Kerr @puncsophaj17
@WeNurses Uni's needs to extend knowledge on pharmacology to ensure competence in practice. Proper training needed #WeNurses
Katie Jones @punc_katiej
@WeNurses It is always important to receive support in such a demanding and important job. Especially when it comes to prescribing #WeNurses
Jordan Coupland @punc16shortie
#WeNurses I feel that a solid basis of knowledge acquired through employment would be more suitable than an NQN with minimal experience

@WeNurses Practical and theory based teaching will need implementing. Would this require an additional year for the degree? #wenurses
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@EllzSummary Learning as a student will give a more in depth knowledge, ensuring they're confident in what they have to do #WeNurses
Jessholliday @Jessholliday1
@AgencyNurse I'm paid as band 6 and prescribe #WeNurses
Jessie @puncjessie
@WeNurses Extra support and supervisions along with training to ensure competence in this area #WeNurses
Jessholliday @Jessholliday1
@AgencyNurse It's investigating time and money for better outcomes #WeNurses
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@EllzSummary On the other hand students are under enough pressure that maybe learning once qualified will reduce the strain students feel #WeNurses
Lemarc John Espina @punc_lemarc13
@sharp_pam @WeNurses @louisebrady17 @shingler_jo This could be a good point, so that patient care is not delayed because a prescription was not made #wenurses

@WeNurses Yes most definitely but it should leaning more towards actual patient care and under the nmc code. #wenurses
Katie Wills @punckatiewills
@WeNurses I believe that it will. Practitioners that are well supported and have understanding are more able to deliver pharmaceutical care #WeNurses
PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@WeNurses Yes but it is essential that we spend the time working in practice and being monitored rather rhan following guidelines blindly #wenurses
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses I think so as it provides a basis and a standard that everyone follows! NMC can develop from that but this is a starting point #WeNurses

@WeNurses I should hope that the framework improves all sectors, however only time will tell #WeNurses
Molly Waring @PUNC_MollyW
@WeNurses I think having the same system across all prescribers will promote continuity, but I think competence is largely due to experience #WeNurses
Phaedra Longhurst @PUNC17Phaedra
@punc17Abbie @Nahida_Az @gavpop @WeNurses Seeing as it's becoming an essential requirement Band 7 and above it could be seen as elitist as the post grad fees are increasing #WeNurses
Natalie Ainslie @punc17nat
@WeNurses Following guidelines and more practices both work hand in hand #WeNurses #NRS403
Lauren Spencer @punc17lauren
@WeNurses Yes I think it will improve and gain professional credibility #wenurses
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses I think so, as it is a standard everyone follows. NMC can develop own standards based on this but this where it starts #WeNurses

PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@EllzSummary @gavpop I feel like this could go one of two ways, either it will be a valuable skill that you feel comfortable with quickly or #wenurses
PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@EllzSummary @gavpop It will be too much for NQNs who already need to learn So much so quickly when first on the ward #wenurses
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@PuncLasseterZoe @shingler_jo I believe in the long run it would be worthwhile #WeNurses
Sarah Davies @puncsal
A framework is beneficial, as a year 1 student though i have lots to learn. #wenurses
PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@PuncGunn @WeNurses @wenurse Exactly! You need to have a bit of both, involve the guidelines in practical education ! #wenurses
Emily Gilbert @punc17egilbert
Q1) experience is critical in prescribing, it’s understandable why they want us to do it.. but gain knowledge!! #WeNurses
Lemarc John Espina @punc_lemarc13
@WeNurses It will be good to have both as they will provide different background knowledge on how to provide good quality patient care #wenurses
Lemarc John Espina @punc_lemarc13
RT @WeNurses:
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses Yes especially when they are newly qualified, it ensures that mistakes aren't made and gives confidence that its done right #WeNurses
Tara Scotney @Punc_TaraS
@WeNurses Yes I think it will improve patient care with the right amount of support #Wenurses
Monica Tong @punc17monica
@WeNurses Completely yes, professionals who are able to give the right support are more likely to provide safe practice #wenurses
Katie Jones @punc_katiej
@WeNurses I think until you are confident or fully competent in this role you should have a mentor, for your safety and patient safety #WeNurses
Jack @PUNC17jack
@WeNurses It shouldn't matter the role, an individuals experience levels in the field should determine whether they should be a mentor #WeNurses
Molly Waring @PUNC_MollyW
@WeNurses I think those who want to be, hold the abilities and experience to be prescribing mentors should be allowed #WeNurses
Sarah Davies @puncsal
I think i would be happier with a designated prescribing mentor #wenurses
PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@WeNurses I think as long as everyone is qualified and understands the importance of being a mentor and takes it seriously then yes #wenurses
Katie Wills @punckatiewills
@WeNurses Depending on competency within prescribing I agree that those less confident should have mentors. #wenurses
Abbie Fleet @punc17Abbie
@WeNurses Yes especially for newly qualified, it ensures that mistakes aren't made and gives confidence and helps experience #WeNurses
Hannah Hickie @hmath68
@WeNurses Definately need the support to facilitate safe transition into the role #WeNurses
Chloe Holdsworth @punc_14chloeh
@WeNurses #WeNurses uni's will have to provide suported training so prescribes will be competent and continue the training later in their careers.
Monica Tong @punc17monica
@WeNurses it'll be a brilliant opportunity for them to share their specialised knowledge and improve quality and safety #wenurses
PUNCaimee17 @puncaimee17
@WeNurses They could provide valuable skills and advice from a different point of view #wenurses
Emily Gilbert @punc17egilbert
Q3) Knowledge from experienced nurses and mentors who are involved in teaching through university and placement. #WeNurses
Natalie Ainslie @punc17nat
@WeNurses I think mentors would be great in providing support #WeNurses #NRS403
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@WeNurses A prescribing mentor would defienteley be beneficial to a students learning #WeNurses
Beth Young @punc17_beth
@WeNurses Mentors should be mentors if they are experienced enough and confident to be so :D #WeNurses
Andrea Silvestre @puncandrea

Amy Nettleinghame @punc17amy
@WeNurses I believe being assigned a mentor will be very beneficial in this situation as it may give the student more confidence #WeNurses
Debbie C @punc_sept17debs
@WeNurses Definitely agree with the requirement for post reg practice. Mentoring I think is a good thing. Confidence breeds confidence. #WeNurses

@sharp_pam @PuncLasseterZoe @WeNurses it is individual, but i heard it is also daunting for newly qualified nurses, especially as they have less support as a student #wenurses

Jack @PUNC17jack
@WeNurses Barriers may include less knowledge paired with the stress of the situation, but correct teaching may improve this #WeNurses
Andrea Silvestre @puncandrea
@WeNurses Newly qualified nurses would not have as much confidence as experienced nurses and hesitations can be harmful #WeNurses
Izzella Abbott @puncizzella
@WeNurses A barrier is definitely the lack of time the nurses would have to prescribe the medicine #WeNurses
Sarah Davies @puncsal
@sharp_pam @PuncLasseterZoe @WeNurses i meant as a newly qualified nurse rather than a student #WeNurses
Sophie Kerr @puncsophaj17
@WeNurses Maybe a wider knowledge should be included in education early on but I think experience is needed for competence #WeNurses
Camilla Gibbins @punc_cgibbins
@WeNurses Nurses competence and expertise is improving all the time and they are learning from the best research evidence to support this #WeNurses
Tara Scotney @Punc_TaraS
@WeNurses Yes, I believe there is a good evidence base to support nurse prescribing #WeNurses
Amanda Griffin @puncamanda89
@WeNurses Newly qualified nurses should be allowed the time to build on confidence before taking this on #WeNurses
