Course Overview

Embark on the journey of the QA Level 3 Award in the Safe Administration of Lifesaving Medication (RQF), a qualification tailored for prehospital care providers entrusted with the crucial task of safely administering and overseeing medication's effects.

Throughout this course, candidates delve into the realm of life-saving medication, understanding its diverse types and potential side effects. They grasp the art of evaluating a patient's condition, mastering the skills to assess, monitor, and evaluate medication's impact post-administration.

Graduates emerge equipped with a comprehensive understanding, fortified with the necessary skills and competencies to administer lifesaving medication confidently and competently within prehospital settings.

Prerequisites

Completion of the QA Level 4 Certificate in First Response Emergency Care (RQF) or equivalent qualification.

What's Covered:

  • Exploration of legislation, guidelines, policies, and protocols

  • Administration of lifesaving medication

  • In-depth knowledge of lifesaving medication types, including their effects and potential side effects

  • Pre- and post-administration physiological measurements

  • Handling common adverse reactions

  • Varied drug administration routes

  • Accurate patient condition assessment for optimal medication selection

  • Proficiency in safe and effective medication administration in prehospital scenarios

  • Ongoing assessment, monitoring, and evaluation of medication effects

While attainment of this qualification signifies mastery of both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, it doesn't confer a 'license to practice.' The scope of practice remains subject to the policies of the medication-providing organization. Additionally, this qualification doesn't authorize learners to procure, store, or administer medication without clinical oversight.

Entry Requirements

Learners must:

  • Be at least 18 years old at the training's onset

  • Be employed by a CQC registered organization or its overseas equivalent

  • Successfully complete the QA Level 4 Certificate in First Response Emergency Care (QCF) or a recognized equivalent While no formal prerequisites exist, learners benefit from a minimum literacy and numeracy level of Level 3 or its equivalent to fully engage in the learning process.
