Wellbeing is the state of having good mental health, high life satisfaction, a sense of meaning or purpose, and the ability to manage stress. It's important to realise that wellbeing is a much deeper concept than moment-to-moment happiness, and we must invest in it if we want to have sustained happiness,  control of our emotions, higher productivity, and good physical health. Why not invest a bit of time this week to familiarise yourself with the concept of wellbeing.

Take a look at some revision tips from pharmacist Adam Ali ...

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Hi, I'm Adam an independent prescriber working in a GP surgery. I undertook an MPharm degree over ten years ago and I've been fortunate to work across the spectrum of the pharmaceutical industry, from GP surgeries to primary care.
At present, I'm undertaking a PGCE and I support students who are preparing to re-sit their pre-registration assessment so they don't undergo the same difficult experience that I went through... sitting the pre-registration assessment three times.

The summer of 2014 was a very tense period and one that I'll never forget. Re-sitting the pre-registration assessment for a third time was the most stressful, enduring, and challenging experience of my career. I went through a range of emotions and the thought of failure at times could be debilitating.
I remember sitting at my desk and thinking "why me?".
After the second failed attempt, I channelled all of my energy into focusing on identifying where I was making mistakes in the exam. I realised it was the way I was approaching revision which was having a negative impact on my exam technique and so, using the tips outlined below, I started to approach my revision with a new method and mindset. . As a result of following this new revision plan, I was successful in my third attempt at sitting the assessment.

Sitting an exam successfully isn't about factual recall. It's about understanding information regarding pharmacy principles, the core drugs, case studies, knowledge application, rationale decision, evidence-based practice, and patient-centred care.
The pre-registration exam draws on the multifaceted experience you gain from placements, complemented by the knowledge acquired on the MPharm course.
It's so important to practice the exam questions and if you go wrong, take time to analyse where and why. Revision is about how you can improve your answers and identify what type of questions are being asked of you.
We are dealing with stressful times and the Covid-19 pandemic may be causing you problems. The best advice I can give is remain calm, keep preparing for the exam and keep your knowledge up to date.
If you are not successful in this year's assessment and lose your current job, don't worry, there are a range of opportunities that you can pursue. Covid-19 itself has brought renewed opportunities to the pharmacy profession, from leading vaccine delivery to being at the epicentre of patient care. Your MPharm degree is transferrable and you can still progress in a successful career.

My biggest piece of advice to any trainee pharmacist facing the postponed assessment this year is to approach your revision and learning in a positive manner, no matter what the outcome.
Remember that patience is the virtue to success. If you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed, for whatever reason, do not hesitate to contact us 0808 168 2233  or by emailing info@pharmacistsupport.org  . We are here to listen and to help in confidence.
