Pharmaceutical Care in Disease Management
Improving patient outcomes by pharmacist intervention
Separate Registration
General Objective:
This programme is the first of
a series of three and is the successor to the Continuing
Education Programme on Pharmaceutical Care, which the Section has
arranged annually since 1993.
The programme focuses on the interventions that pharmacists may
perform to improve patient outcomes.The running theme of the
three year programme will be:
1. Skills and various methods
in the communication process;
2. Skills in managing pharmaceutical care and pharmacist
interventions;
3. Assessment and research of pharmacist interventions and
patient outcomes.
It is proposed to set up a network (The FIP-network of Pharmaceutical Care) to exchange information between participants during two FIP Congresses. Access to this will be for the people who have registered.
Specific objectives for the first year:
a To develop professional
skills towards prescribers and patients based on new knowledge
and techniques;
b To educate participants to become educators and guiding lights
for colleagues in their own countries;
c To enable participants to communicate by using a network;
