The rise in the number of people using medical Cannabis has risen drastically since the UK law was changed in 2018, and there is a parallel  increase in the number of service users now being prescribed medical Cannabis. 

The Law in the UK has now made it legal for a person to possess Cannabis, for personal use, if prescribed by a Licensed Prescriber, but would your staff know how to safely administer it? The Law is far more complex than for other controlled drugs, and your staff need to understand the risks associated with handling and administering it. Our course designed for Health and Social Care, will prepare your team to ensure that they remain safe and work within the law, if asked to support a service user to utilise this drug.

This is a 6 hour course

You will receive a  'Achieved required standards' Certificate on successful completion of the course, along with a Statement of learning that shows the subject matter delivered.
