This accessible and comprehensive book provides the thorough
understanding of this discipline that will be needed for practising
pharmacists and students to develop into effective public health
practitioners. The role of pharmacists in improving the general
health of the public is developing rapidly, directed by changes to
health policy in the UK and elsewhere. Often the focus of the
pharmacist is necessarily on individual patients, but the
importance of pharmacy practice in population health should not be
underestimated. Pharmacy in Public Health focuses on the important
topics in public health relevant to all pharmacists. Case studies
are used throughout the text to illustrate how public health
initiatives can be implemented in different pharmacy sectors.
Specific key concepts are outlined, including: determinants of
health; pharmacy within public health - UK and international
perspective; needs assessment and public involvement;
evidence-based delivery; risks and benefits; health education
opportunities; health protection; developing pharmacy services and
preventing disease; and medicines management.
