Pharmacist Skills & Roles
« on: September 24, 2007, 02:29:59 AM »
Pharmacists are often the first point-of-contact for patients with health inquiries. This means that pharmacists have large roles in the assesing medication management in the primary care of patients. These roles may include, but are not limited to:

  • clinical medication management
  • the assessment of patients with undiagnosed or diagnosed conditions and for decisions about the clinical medication management required.
    • specialized monitoring of disease states
    • reviewing medication regimens
      • monitoring of treatment regimens
      • general health monitoring
        • compounding medicines
        • general health advice
          • providing specific education to patients about disease states and medications
          • oversight of dispensing medicines on prescription
            • provision of non-prescription medicines
            • counseling and advice on optimal use of medicines
              • advice and treatment of common ailments
              • referral to other health professionals if necessary
                • dosing drugs in renal and hepatic failure
                • pharmacokinetic evaluation
                  • education of physicians and other healthcare providers on medications and their proper use
                  • limited prescribing of medications only in collaboration with other healthcare professionals
