Summary
This article contains information on how to include a completed professional practice assessment tool as a Collaborative Learning Experience.
What is the Professional Practice Assessment Tool LX?
The Professional Practice Assessment Tool LX allows pharmacists to record the completion of either the Clinical Competency Achievement Tool (ClinCAT) or the Professional Practice Standards (PPS) 2023 Tool. These tools are used to assess a pharmacist's performance in delivering high-quality, safe, reliable and evidence-based healthcare services. It can be used for inclusion towards ANZCAP recognition.
The Clinical Competency Achievement Tool (ClinCAT) is a tool used to facilitate peer evaluation of a pharmacist's practice through a snapshot of their day-to-day practice.
The Professional Practice Standards (PPS) define and articulate the minimum performance expectations of professional behaviour of all pharmacists.
The pharmacist will choose which tool is the most appropriate for their current role, location of professional practice and availability of trained evaluators.
Please refer to the relevant article for further information on how to complete either the:
Practice Recognition Level
The Professional Practice Assessment Tool Learning Experience is mapped to Domain 1, 2, 4 & 5 of the National Competency Standards Framework for Pharmacists in Australia 2016.
Please refer to the ANZCAP recognition descriptors article for the further guidance on markers of performance for each ANZCAP recognition level. The pharmacist and collaborator should indicate on the learning experience tool which of the three levels of practice recognition (resident, register, consultant) they are currently practicing at or a candidate for. Please note that not all the domain 1, 2, 4 & 5 indicators listed in this document may be relevant to this Learning Experience.
Forms and Templates
The Professional Practice Assessment Tool LX is available on the AZCAP Digital platform. The pharmacist will complete the chosen professional practice tool requirements prior to recording it within the LX. The pharmacist should include a copy of the professional development plan as evidence to support this learning experience.
