Remote health in pharmacy practice has the need for a collaborative effort in developing policy.
All parties must contribute for a service to work.
It is no use always blaming someone else as to why a thing did not work or happen.
The National Medicines policy is the best reference.
See at http://www.health.gov.au/pbs/natmedpol/nmp2000.htm
It spells out the need for partnerships to achieve quality use of medicine.
This must be across all sectors, stakeholders, and whatever you want to call the people who have an interest.
If a party were to bring together the following parties for their input to policy development for Quality Use of Medicines (QUM) it would be great.
Try:
Pharmacists
Doctors
Nurses
Aboriginal Health Workers
Manufacturers
Wholesalers
State/Territory Health Departments
Federal Health and HICAdd
…To the list,
Who do you want there?
Who will organise it?For comment and offers of host see the
