Démarche pour la mise à niveau de soins pharmaceutiques en établissement de santé : l'exemple de l'immunisation

The objective of this study was to explore community pharmacists' views on providing influenza vaccine administration services in community pharmacies in Jordan. Methods: The current study is a cross-sectional exploratory study conducted using semistructured telephone interviews. The semi-structured interview schedule was developed by the researchers and comprised open-ended questions aligned with the study objectives. The telephone interviews were recorded and fully transcribed, and the transcripts were quantitatively coded following a generic qualitative approach. Results: A total of 19 pharmacists took part in this study. Eight participants (42.1%) reported that they had administered the influenza vaccine during their practice. The three overarching themes which described the participating pharmacists' views towards providing influenza vaccine administration services in community pharmacies were benefits, enablers, and barriers. The reported benefits included enhanced therapeutic relationships with patients and increased patient accessibility to vaccines. The majority of the participants indicated that they would be more willing to provide influenza vaccine administration if they received the support they needed from the Jordan Pharmacists Association, third-party insurance companies, and drug stores. Further, from the participants' perspectives, the main barriers to this change in practice were physicians, regulations, and lack of sufficient training. Conclusion: Overall, the participating pharmacists had positive attitudes towards administering the influenza vaccine in community pharmacies. The participants highlighted the need for support from regulatory bodies and stakeholders to change the current scope of practice in Jordan. Moreover, the study highlighted the need to incorporate vaccine administration in the curricula used to train new pharmacy graduates.
