“…In other reviews, the challenges and limitations of clinical practice are examined, as well as the benefits of electronic records and different modes of communication with patients (face-to-face, telephone, video) [ 94 , 117 , 143 , 190 , 191 , 192 ]. A wide range of publications discuss CMM services and pharmacists’ role in their implementation, such as articles on websites, commentaries, brief communications, guides, and editorials, among others [ 117 , 118 , 185 , 193 , 194 , 195 , 196 , 197 , 198 , 199 , 200 , 201 , 202 , 203 , 204 , 205 , 206 , 207 , 208 ]. There are reports about the transition from one level of healthcare to another; patients and healthcare institutions have benefited from clinical pharmacist services [ 115 , 118 , 209 , 210 ].…”

Comprehensive Medication Management Services with a Holistic Point of View, a Scoping Review

2023

Implementing Comprehensive Medication Management (CMM) services uncovered the importance of the totality of the patient’s perspective in this process. The holistic approach takes into account the physical, mental and emotional well-being of individuals, as well as their socioeconomic circumstances. The aim of this study was to characterize the scientific evidence associated with CMM services that included this holistic approach. A scoping review was conducted based on Arksey and O’Malley’s method. Searches were performed in Google Scholar for papers published between 2010 and 2020 in English, Spanish and Portuguese. Study design, health contexts, sample of patients, results obtained, barriers and facilitators, and the integration of a holistic approach were determined. Two hundred and eighteen papers were evaluated, most of which focused on the implementation of this service through prospective observational studies. A minority of studies reported on a holistic approach, a smaller number examined the effect of social determinants of health, the patient’s medication experiences and the pharmacotherapy outcomes from the patient’s perspective. Despite the progress achieved, most of the referents do not yet reflect a broader view of the patient’s life situation and its relationship to pharmacotherapy and the ways in which the pharmacist implements holistic elements to solve or prevent drug-related problems.

“…Although physicians' responses to NMP was initially negative in Canada, attitudes have softened with time. 8 All pharmacists in Canada have variable prescribing authority, including continuing, adapting, and initiating prescriptions depending on provincial regulations. 16 In 2020, 6661 of Canadian nurse practitioners had prescribing authority, recording the largest growth compared with other regulated nursing professionals.…”

AimThis study sought to determine the factors influencing successful implementation of non‐medical prescribing (NMP).Data sourcesEMBASE, Medline, CINAHL and reference lists were searched from January 2010 to November 2020.Study SelectionUmbrella review and narrative synthesis of results were utilised. The retrieved reviews underwent title screening, abstract review, full‐text screening and assessment for inclusion. To guarantee the precision of the search results, Participants, Intervention, Control, and Outcomes (PICO) elements were recorded for each study. Studies were included if they were systematic reviews, published in English, published from January 2010 to November 2020, and discussed barriers and/or facilitators to NMP implementation.ResultsOf the 193 studies identified, eight were eligible for inclusion. Most of the reviews (62%) were published in 2017–2018. The majority of the reviews (62%) were focused on the United Kingdom. Three reviews discussed nurse prescribing, two reviews focused on pharmacist prescribing, and three reviews investigated NMP generally. Data were compiled into the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research to evaluate the factors that influence the success or failure of NMP implementation.ConclusionImplementation of NMP is a complex process which requires fulfilment of all its elements. The success of NMP can be directly related to the extent of the whole system engagement and support, and available funding.

Have you ever supervised a student's work experience? Attended a continued professional development (CPD) event? Now consider the requirements for renewing your registration with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC). All three of these experiences have a common thread: reflection.The term 'reflection' is used everywhere these days. Reflection has been defined as a specific thinking process of "engaging the self in attentive, critical, exploratory and iterative interactions with one's thoughts and actions, and their underlying conceptual frame, with a view to changing them and with a view on the change itself" [1]. It is an integral requirement of all pharmacy courses, from undergraduate to postgraduate level, including CPD training and post-registration qualifications such as independent prescribing. The GPhC has always used the concept of reflection in their CPD expectations, and in recent years it has become an
