What is a DPP?

Regulatory changes in the Great britain in 2019 resulted in not-medical prescribers of any professional background to be able to supervise a non-prescriber through a supervised period of learning exercise (PLP). Upon successful completion, in conjunction with a academy course, this grants prescriber status to the not-prescriber. Previous to 2019, the ability to tutor non-prescribers was solely the office of doctors who were termedDesignated Medical Practitioners (DMP).

A DPP is a healthcare professional such as a nurse, pharmacist, dentist or doc that has the power to prescribe. The title of DPP is given to someone when they accept been recognised by a regulatory torso and a academy to be able to railroad train non-prescribing healthcare professionals to go prescribing healthcare professionals (ofttimes termed not-medical prescribers).
