E-DRUG: Setting up Hospital/ Clinic Pharmacies in Resource-Poor Setting (18)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Suzanna,
You may also consider the following publications developed by FIP (the world pharmacists organisation) which could complete the other publications mentioned by e-druggers:
- Recommendations for pharmacy management and the dispensing of Anti-Retroviral Medicines in Resource-limited settings. Although this document was originally developed for ARV, it applies to hospital as well. You may access it at: http://www.fip.org/files/fip/HIV/eng/RecommendationsENG2008.pdf
- The Basel Statements: The Global Conference on the Future of Hospital Pharmacy was hosted by the FIP Hospital Pharmacy Section as part of the 68th Annual Congress of the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP). A total of 348 hospital pharmacists representing 98 nations met in Basel, Switzerland on 30 and 31 August and successfully developed consensus statements reflecting the profession's preferred vision of practice in the hospital setting.
You can also use the statements for self-assessment purposes. They are available at: http://www.fip.org/baseltranslations
