Preparing for mandatory use of ScriptCheckSA on 1 April 2022
Date: 31 March 2022
ScriptCheckSA supports your clinical practice by providing 24/7 access to your patient’s monitored drug history, including details of prescribers and other pharmacies providing treatment for your patient.
70% of pharmacists in South Australia are already registered for ScriptCheckSA.
From 1 April 2022, AHPRA registered pharmacists (including interns and those in private and public hospitals, aged care facilities, correctional facilities, and other health services) will be required to check ScriptCheckSA before dispensing a monitored drug to a patient.
Register and access the free online training at https://www.scriptcheck.sa.gov.au/
