The existing training provided to hospital pharmacy technicians (HPTs) in the anti-cancer drug preparation unit (UPAC in French) of the Groupe Hospitalier Sud Île-de-France did not allow for hands-on training situations and was mainly based on reading procedures. To address this issue, we designed a training module that incorporates innovative digital tools, with the goal of increasing HPT engagement and enhancing training effectiveness. The development of the module took place in two stages. The first consisted of a survey to gather information about the team’s needs. The second involved the development of training materials: 8 slideshows, 4 demonstration videos, and a drug-handling simulation workshop. This workshop was based on our digital video recognition tool to closely replicate actual preparation conditions, and involved using fluorescein to visually assess chemical contamination. The new training module has been well received by HPTs, who appreciate its educational value and the autonomy it gives to HPTs in training. Given how easily it can be implemented, the potential transferability of the training module to another UPAC is already being explored.
