IPU NET Launch Guide
Introduction
Welcome to IPU NET, a web-based application designed to support members of the Irish
Pharmacy Union in both the delivering and recording of services to patients. This service is
designed for use by any pharmacist working in a pharmacy registered on IPU NET.
To avail of the suite of products available, both the pharmacy and any pharmacist users must
register with IPU NET.
• Clinical Support Tool
IPU NET creates a range of products which can be used as a step-by-step guide in delivering a
patient service in a community pharmacy. This complements Standard Operating Procedures
and other support material already provided by the IPU for members’ use.
• Record Service Provision
IPU NET also facilitates the recording of service provision. Records created can either be saved
in electronic or paper format.
The very useful “Reports” function provides each registered pharmacy with information on
services delivered by their pharmacy, such as an “Activity Log” which allows the identification
of trends in service delivery in that pharmacy and supports planning to meet this need.
• Demonstrate Value of Pharmacy Services
As this is a web-based application, records from individual pharmacies can be aggregated on an
anonymised basis, purely for statistical purposes. The anonymised information collated will
allow the IPU to promote the role of community pharmacy in patient services and demonstrate
evidence of the effectiveness of delivering these patient services in community pharmacies.
IPU NET is an innovative application to support and promote the role of community pharmacy
in providing a broad range of convenient, accessible and cost effective healthcare care services
to our patients and the public.

Step Two: Registration of Pharmacy and Pharmacist
As part of the PHARMACY registration, one PHARMACIST must also register in order to use
the service. We suggest that the pharmacist registered at this stage should be the SUPERVISING
PHARMACIST as they will have access to the REPORTS for your pharmacy’s activity on IPU
NET and the ability to EDIT the pharmacy details. Once the pharmacy is successfully registered
additional pharmacists can also register on IPU NET. (Please see Section Three.)
