The Podiatry Board of Australia (the Board) has published an example portfolio of evidence to help practitioners understand the requirements for endorsement for scheduled medicines.
One of the requirements under Pathway B is the completion of a period of supervised practice, during which you will progressively develop a portfolio of evidence.
The purpose of the portfolio is to demonstrate to the Board that you have the required prescribing competencies to have your registration endorsed for scheduled medicines and that you have met the Board’s requirements for supervised practice. It must include clinical studies and a reflective journal and is submitted with your application for endorsement for assessment.
The sample portfolio (below), which includes an example of an evidence matrix and log of activities, as well as two clinical studies and some reflective pieces, is intended to provide guidance only and is not a representation of a completed portfolio.
You'll also find the sample portfolio on the Endorsement for scheduled medicines page along with two animated videos about Pathway B including the role of a mentor, as well as the registration standard, associated guidelines, FAQ and relevant templates.
It’s important to read the registration standard and guidelines carefully as well as the FAQ to make sure you understand the requirements.
