Empowering Pharmacist in the Management of Chronic Kidney Disease E-learning Modules
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent and severe condition that progresses silently in most patients. As such, many patients are not diagnosed until the late stages of CKD, resulting in a greater risk of poor outcomes, such as end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis or transplant. The eLearning modules provide foundational knowledge about CKD for pharmacists and pharmacy team members to support at-risk patient identification and counselling. The modules have been created considering community pharmacy practice: case studies have been included to help with the understanding and relevance to daily practice.
Intended Audience
It is recommended that the eLearning modules are completed by all pharmacists and pharmacy team members.
There are also learning quizzes at the end of each module to test understanding and application of knowledge. The modules have been created to support continuing professional education, and pharmacists can use them as evidence of their professional development.
