The presentation stimulated the appetite of a great deal of the attendee and yearned to know more about MUROnline. They want to know how we plan to achieve the motivation of pharmacists. Troy Blake, a pharmacist from Southampton wrote: ‘I feel I know what an evangelist is but not what it would entail in practice - unsure - sounds exciting’.
It is exciting and we are certainly excited about this. The website is not done yet and we are still working on the content (hence the BETA release). The principle underpinning this project is this: As a group of pharmacists, we understand that the take-up of MUR could and should have been better, but there were valid issues around the implementation that probably alienated a significant majority of our colleagues. We also understand that the only people that will enable the patients to get the best value from the service are the pharmacists. So how does one re-motivate the pharmacist?
Presentations like this one is one way. We are very pleased that it is acting as a trigger for those who are not already accredited and a way to re-energise those who are already delivering the service. We have some interesting ideas about how to implement good MURs and we will share these. However, we also know that there are tons of very good practices out there. By being part of the MUROnline family, we encourage you to share these good practices with your colleagues; after all that is an integral part of the evangelist’s role. You are able to do this by submitting articles on the website. Furthermore, we aim to make this the number 1 repository for anything relating to MUR. So on the website you might find clinical and practice information at your fingertip to aid the MUR process. Some of the contents may only be available to registered users of our site. MUR Online is the home of the MUR Evangelist and all the things you can do on the website will be at no financial cost to you. All we are truly interested in is a group of pharmacists delivering good quality MURs that will benefit their patients. Moreover, if you register in the BETA period, you can help shape the site’s contents. We want to achieve 100% service delivery across England and Wales in a fun way and taking advantage of Information Technology.
What is in it for me?
We have pondered over this a lot and we think we may be able to provide you with some answers. The overriding benefit is the satisfaction in knowing that you are doing all you can for your patients. We understand that you may want to be rewarded for your efforts. As a regular user of our site, you are demonstrating your passion for the service and we have devised a number of strategies to support you. Whatever your motivation, be it professional recognition or some other remuneration, then we might have something in it for you.
Now, just close you eyes and take a deep breath. Think about the possibilities for our patients and our beloved profession. Make your mind up positively about MUR. Open your eyes and consider joining this innovation! Register as an MUR Evangelist today.
