THE Australian Pharmacy Council
has released consolidated feedback
from the first round consultation
of the evaluation and credentialing
of advanced pharmacist practice
standards, policies and processes.
The feedback appears largely
positive but there are calls for
clarity in several areas, including
that the standards were broad,
with standards one to three
representing those which applied
to all pharmacists.
The difference between area
and scope of practice was also
highlighted by some submissions as
not being sufficiently clear, with the
Pharmaceutical Society of Australia
(PSA) saying a more comprehensive
explanation of the terms would be
considered beneficial.
