PAD Course

The Pharmacy Anti-cancer Drug (PAD) Course supports pharmacists to develop the knowledge and clinical skills required to work safely with anti-cancer drugs and the patients receiving them. It has been brought to you in collaboration with eviQ Education, a program of the Cancer Institute NSW (Australia).

The PAD Course provides foundation level education for pharmacists working in the cancer care practice setting.

The course consists of online learning and practical skills development to support the translation of theory into practice within the workplace. Competency assessments are used to assess clinical skill.

There are two models of course delivery that can be adapted to suit the needs of the learner and the workplace.

Self-Directed Model

The learner completes the online components of the course only including eLearning guides, eQuizzes and workbooks (optional).

Facilitator Model

The learner completes the online components of the course including the eLearning guides, eQuizzes and workbooks (optional).

A trained PAD Course facilitator supports the learner to complete the practical skills components of the course including supervised clinical practice, clinical skills workshop and competency assessments.

Workbooks have been provided to assist you in applying the principles discussed in the modules to your local work context and role. If you choose to use the workbook, whenever you see a workplace reflection in the module, there is space allocated in the workbook for you to record notes. Please confirm with your local supervisor or facilitator (if available) if the workbook will be mandated at your workplace.

Modules may be completed in any order and may be prioritized according to your role and responsibilities.
