A new e-learning 'Veilig voorschrijven' aiming to promote safe and effective prescription of medication, by dealing with four relevant themes in the pharmaceutical field.
The Pharmacotherapy team is a new concept developed at the Amsterdam University Medical Center (UMC) location VUmc. Within this multidisciplinary team, knowledge and expertise of doctors and pharmacists, whether or not in training as a clinical pharmacologist, are bundled with the aim of promoting safe and effective prescription of medication. According to the Amsterdam UMC, it is important that every doctor who starts working at their hospital has sufficient knowledge regarding prescriptions. To help with this, both Elevate and the Pharmacotherapy team have designed and developed an e-learning on four main themes: antibiotics, anti-coagulation, pain relief and psychotropic drugs. The e-learning is offered through the Elevate Learning Platform.

Aside from the junior doctors, this e-learning is also highly recommended as part of the continuous professional development pathway for already employed healthcare professionals and doctors.
With medical science constantly evolving, obtaining a medicine degree is really just the start. It is essential for healthcare professionals to continue studying developments that affect the practice of their profession, by keeping up with the literature, either through continuing their professional development or by taking online medical education.
Healthcare professionals often work under great pressure in a range of professional situations. As lifelong learners they decide their own educational needs and at Elevate Health we are passionate about helping them achieve these goals by developing the best, tailor-made learning solutions.
