This book was released on 2007 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increasing importance of drugs in patients' therapy and the rising drug costs, health policy makers are focusing attention on strategies to enhance the safety, effectiveness and efficiency of drug prescribing and use. The goal of this research was to assess Ontario family physicians' readiness to collaborate with community pharmacists on drug therapy management. A 22-item survey instrument, developed based on the Transtheoretical Model of Behaviour Change, was distributed to a stratified random sample of 848 family physicians across Ontario. The survey response rate was 36%. Eighty four percent of respondents regularly took community pharmacists' phone calls, pertaining to drug therapy management, while 78% sometimes sought pharmacists' recommendations regarding their patients' drug therapy. Only 29% of physicians, however, referred their patients to community pharmacists for medication reviews, with 45% unaware such a service exists. Overall, Ontario physicians were more engaged in lower level collaborative behaviours, than higher level collaborative behaviours, regarding drug therapy management.

This book was released on 2009-06-09 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pharmacist-physician collaboration has been shown to improve the safety and cost-effectiveness of drug therapy, however, it occurs relatively infrequently in the community setting, with respect to drug therapy management. This book provides information regarding family physician attitudes towards and readiness to collaborate with community pharmacists on drug therapy management. We developed a survey instrument utilizing the Transtheoretical Model of Behaviour Change, and administered it to a random sample of 848 family physicians in Ontario, Canada. We found that collaborative relationships between pharmacists and physicians were generally underdeveloped. System-related barriers, including pharmacists' lack of patient information, were highlighted by physicians as particularly problematic for collaborative relationship development. Our analysis sheds light on the predictors of physician readiness to collaborate with pharmacists, and provide direction for policy makers and health professionals interested in developing collaborative working relationship with physicians.
Book Synopsis Community Pharmacists' Perceptions of Their Collaborative Working Relationships with Physicians for Drug Therapy Management by : Andree Danielle Taylor
Download or read book Community Pharmacists' Perceptions of Their Collaborative Working Relationships with Physicians for Drug Therapy Management written by Andree Danielle Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose. To determine community pharmacists' perceptions of their collaborative working relationships (CWRs) with physicians and of factors that contributed to or hindered collaborative drug therapy management (C-DTM). Methods. Ten semi-structured interviews were conducted with medical building pharmacists in Toronto who varied in gender and years of practice experience in Canada. Interpretive content analysis was performed. Results. Pharmacists desired a role in C-DTM to reduce the number of drug therapy problems; however, collaboration was uncommon. Pharmacists' best CWRs were at low, mid, and high levels. Attributes ascribed to CWRs were trust, working together, communication, sharing decisions and patient information, and patient referral. Factors that contributed to or hindered the development of CWRs at the practice and system levels were described. Conclusions. C-DTM is infrequent and does not occur to the extent that participants perceived was necessary to improve prescribing and patient outcomes. McDonough and Doucette's CWR Model (2001) should include third-party (i.e. receptionist) and systemic factors as influences on pharmacist-physician CWRs.

Book excerpt: New ways to expand team-based health care are needed to protect the health of Americans. Many chronic diseases, which are increasing with the aging U.S. population, are preventable or manageable. The role of the pharmacist has expanded beyond just dispensing medications and is evolving into active participation in chronic disease management as a part of team-based care. Programs addressing chronic diseases in state health departments and communities can build team relationships through public and private partnerships. We intend for this guide to serve as a starting point for Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) grantees to build these relationships with pharmacists and other strategic stakeholders. The objectives of this guide are to provide the following information: Basic definitions for medication therapy management, comprehensive medication management, and collaborative drug therapy management; A description of the role of the pharmacist in team-based health care; Evidence to support maximizing pharmacists' engagement in team-based health care; An overview of pharmacist scope of practice policies at the federal and state levels; A description of how chronic diseases are addressed in community pharmacies; Examples of medication therapy management from state health departments; Strategies for working with pharmacists.

Book Synopsis Perceptions of Medical Students on Pharmacists Provided Counseling Services and Collaboration with Pharmacists Using the Theory of Planned Behavior by : Surbhi Shah
Download or read book Perceptions of Medical Students on Pharmacists Provided Counseling Services and Collaboration with Pharmacists Using the Theory of Planned Behavior written by Surbhi Shah and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past, pharmacists' roles were centered around dispensing and compounding medications. With the changing roles and responsibilities of pharmacists in managing patients' medication therapy, an emphasis is being made on providing team based care to patients. Recent changes in legislation, improvements in regulatory standards, and developmental changes in reimbursement strategies have driven this change in the healthcare environment. Several interprofessional models of care have been implemented in various settings to effectively allocate resources and improve the access and continuity of care. The counseling services provided by pharmacists provide opportunities for patients, physicians, and pharmacists to work closely with each other. Physicians benefit from these services through improving patient safety and utilizing their time and expertise to see more patients. Pharmacists benefit by building relationships with physicians with the goal of making medication related recommendations to improve patients' drug therapy. Therefore, for the collaboration between pharmacists and physicians to be successful, interaction between them is important and begins at the educational level. With the focus being made on patient centered care, incorporating some educational sessions on the services that other healthcare providers provide or workshops on collaboration could be an important part in the curriculum of both medical and pharmacy schools. It could allow them to better understand each other's role and responsibilities, skills, and expertise. It could also improve their communication skills, trust, and confidence with each other. Therefore, the aim of our study was to understand the perceptions of medical students on pharmacist-provided counseling services and towards collaboration. A modified Theory of Planned Behavior was used to assess awareness, attitude, perceived behavioral control, subjective norm, and intention of the first and second year medical students at the University of Toledo. The study consisted of developing a valid and reliable survey, which was sent to a total of 370 first and second year medical students from the University of Toledo, College of Medicine. A total of 87 surveys were included in the analysis. It was found that our theory was beneficial in supporting the framework and all the constructs of the theory together predicted intention of medical students to collaborate with pharmacists. By evaluating their thoughts through various open-ended questions, we found that medical students were interested in learning about the counseling services and collaboration in their curriculum. Hence, our research demonstrates the need for some changes in their curriculum by incorporating some lectures and workshops to learn about the roles and responsibilities of pharmacists and to experience interprofessionalism in their courses and clinical experiences.
