Title What do GP’s and others really think of community pharmacy? Media name/outlet Pharmacy In Practice Media type Other Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 16/04/19 Description Authors Hindi AMK, Schafheutle EI and Jacobs S were involved in the publication of a qualitative study recently with the following title:
Community pharmacy integration within the primary care pathway for people with long-term conditions: a focus group study of patients’, pharmacists’ and GPs’ experiences and expectations.
In this podcast, I ask one of the authors, Ali Hindi, a number of questions about what the study has told us about how community pharmacy is perceived. The conversation was very interesting and revolved around the following areas:
- Access to patient records.
- Community pharmacists possibly being their own worst enemy in terms of having the confidence to take on new roles.
- The pressure community pharmacies find themselves under to deliver the NHS contract.
- Insights into how GPs feel about community pharmacy.
- Why the choice to focus on long-term conditions.URL https://pharmacyinpractice.scot/2019/04/16/what-do-gps-and-others-really-think-of-community-pharmacy/ Persons Ali Hindi
