Pharmacy Continuing Professional Development (Pharmacy CPD)

Training and educational events

I met Nina over 20 years ago in the UKCPA. Her achievement in clinical pharmacy and clinical leadership in the area of older people has been widely recognised. 

Working with Nina in my role as a moderator of MORPh training webinars I find Nina passionate in enabling others to recognise and achieve their own potential through discussion and mentoring. 

Nina is able to empower others to do the same as her, to stop, think and then act in a manner that inspires confidence.

“Nina delivered an excellent webinar on Structured Medication Reviews [in July 2020].  It was really popular, with over 200 attendees and received great feedback.

Nina was extremely reliable and personable to work with, providing her slides in a timely fashion and responding quickly to queries sent in after the webinar.  I look forward to working with her again in future”.

Sue Smith, Head of Education, NICE Medicines and Prescribing Associate PrescQIPP CIC, UK.

Nina recently [2019] supported our CCG medicines management educational event and her expert knowledge and extensive experience shone throughout her presentation on polypharmacy and deprescribing.  She delivered a specifically tailored presentation to our primary care clinicians full of personal and professional insight, practical tips and pragmatic suggestions on prioritisation and approach. Attendees were engaged and inspired, leaving the event armed with many useful strategies and actions to put into practice! Working with Nina is a pleasure and her passion, energy and enthusiasm are infectious!

Pharmacy CPD continued:

MORPh Training has been fortunate to have worked with Nina [since 2019] on many occasions both face to face and on webinars. Her experience and professionalism shine through by the many anecdotes which bring the clinical and patient factors together which makes learning so much more enjoyable and memorable. Her sheer passion for the training and improving patient care means our delegates and myself were thoroughly engaged throughout our 2-hour webinar.

I have been privileged to have the good fortune to work with Nina [since 2017], a respected national leader in Pharmacy education and with whom I have also developed a meaningful and lasting relationship. For the past two years, we have collaborated to bring live and on-demand educational resources to pharmacists across Europe on topics such as medicines adherence, polypharmacy, deprescribing and medications reviews, supporting person-centred pharmaceutical care. I have experienced first-hand through working with Nina that it is possible to be a leader of her calibre without having a ‘sense of entitlement’, and her versatile and flexible working style leaves me in anticipation of an opportunity to work with her again in future.’

Nina has always been a pleasure to work with, she is very engaged, responsive and takes the challenges out of organising events that can otherwise be incredibly difficult. Nina has a solid reputation for delivering quality content, she is hugely resected by delegates and get the best out of people. Most importantly delivering improved patient care forms the bedrock of everything she does.

International pharmaceutical company executive

I have worked with Nina several times over the past 6 years [since 2014], and the fact I continue to look for ways to work with her demonstrates how valuable I have found Nina’s input and support in my role within the Pharmaceutical industry. Nina’s experience with coaching language and a people-centred perspective, along with her calmness and ability to see different perspectives has added so much value to training programmes I have run with healthcare professionals in various disease areas. Nina has a unique way to support through understanding how we as humans respond to certain language as well as using her extensive experience of working within the NHS and in clinical Pharmacy. Overall, Nina is a reliable, and very adaptable to ensuring what’s offered fits with what’s needed – I highly recommend working with Nina.
