Washington bill would let pharmacists administer vaccines Share This Page
  February 13, 2015A Washington state senate bill would allow pharmacists to order and give all vaccinations without a doctor's order. Bill sponsor Senator Ann Rivers (R-Clark County) says the measure would expand access for all vaccinations by using pharmacies as distribution points.

A Washington state senate bill would allow pharmacists to order and give all vaccinations without a doctor's order. Bill sponsor Senator Ann Rivers (R-Clark County) says the measure would expand access for all vaccinations by using pharmacies as distribution points. Pharmacists are already trained to give vaccines right now, but are limited to the flu and shingles vaccine. The bill would give a patient the ability to walk into their regular pharmacy and be assessed by the pharmacist without a doctor's note. The patient would then be able to receive any vaccine a doctor would otherwise administer. The bill is currently awaiting a hearing in the Health Care Committee. It would be the first of its kind in the nation, if passed.

Educational demands of pharmacists working in the pharmaceutical industry under the reformed 6-year pharmacy education system in Korea | Pharmacy Education Educational demands of pharmacists working in the pharmaceutical industry under the reformed 6-year pharmacy education system in KoreaWritten by: Hae Sun Suh, Hye-Young Kang • July 1 2014•Volume 14• Abstract

Aims: Evidence is missing on educational demands from the perspective of pharmacists working in the pharmaceutical industry. We aimed to explore the educational demand by industry pharmacists under the reformed 6-year pharmacy education system in Korea to improve pharmacists’ competencies in the pharmaceutical industry.

Methods: A web-based self-administered survey was conducted with 95 pharmacists working in the pharmaceutical industry in Korea.

Results: Social and administrative pharmacy (SAP) classes were ranked the highest among classes that respondents indicated necessary to prepare them to work in the pharmaceutical industry, followed by clinical pharmacy, industrial pharmacy, pharmacology, and life pharmacy. Overall, responses were consistent across different job functions (e.g., clinical research, research/development, sales/marketing, medical information, and price/reimbursement functions) and the length of industry career.

Conclusion: We expect that the results of this investigation would be helpful as reference information to aid ongoing update of pharmacy education, particularly for pharmacy programs interested in cultivating industry pharmacists.

Veterinary pharmacy: coverage in the undergraduate pharmacy curriculum and perspectives of practising pharmacists | Pharmacy Education Veterinary pharmacy: coverage in the undergraduate pharmacy curriculum and perspectives of practising pharmacistsWritten by: Noelle H. O'Driscoll, Andrew J. Lamb, Olga Labovitiadi, Charles Juwah • July 1 2014•Volume 14• Abstract

Background: The scope of tuition delivered in a School of Pharmacy in the UK on the topic of veterinary pharmacy appears to be centred on legislation and medicine supply under the veterinary cascade.

Aims: This study sought the opinions of pharmacy undergraduate students, practising community and hospital pharmacists, on veterinary pharmacy in the current undergraduate curriculum and their views on increasing coverage of this topic.

Method: Data were collected through use of survey questionnaires, focus groups and direct face-to-face structured interviews from 115 pharmacy students, 40 community pharmacists and 20 hospital pharmacists.

Results: Findings from this study confirmed that veterinary pharmacy coverage is minimal in the current undergraduate pharmacy curriculum. About 70% of student respondents confirmed that greater inclusion of veterinary pharmacy in the curriculum is perceived to be beneficial for future employment. Community pharmacists revealed that their lack of knowledge of veterinary medicines affected their participation in veterinary pharmacy. Though hospital pharmacists were not exposed to, and rarely had any participation in veterinary pharmacy, they were largely of the opinion that all pharmacists should possess knowledge of veterinary medicines.

Conclusions: The main conclusion is the current level of tuition on veterinary pharmacy is insufficient and this identified deficiency requires to be addressed.
