NPA NVQ 3 Module 5 Progression Assessment

[Molly]

Good afternoon everyone, another newbie here...

I was hoping someone could help me, I'm looking for some suggestions on a question in the 'short answer' section of module 5:
'Describe the cascade system for veterinary medicines'.
I have found the information required in the MEP, but in all honesty am struggling to 'keep it brief'!! Anyone able to give me a brief description please of how best to explain this without using half a forrest?!
Any help gratefully received, thanks x

Molly, how about .......

The cascade system is a set of rules determining the order and choice of medicines available to a vet when treating animals. This means that a human medicine cannot be supplied if an equivalent veterinary product is available.

Thank you, thats just the kind of thing I was after! I've been working on my module most of the day and just found myself with a mental block!!
Have you finished your course?

Thanks again

Glad I could help Molly. I have found this site more helpful than my pharmacist at some points in the course !!!

When answering a question, do not go into too much detail unless specifically requested. I remember a pharmacology question on blood tests. It just asked to list those available. I gave a list, others tried to describe each test in detail and ran out of time. i got full marks.
