Advanced practice paper
September 20, 2013
The Australian Pharmacy
Council has released a new
document which provides a global
context to the development and
implementation of advanced
pharmacy practice recognition.
Dubbed An environmental
snapshot of Advanced and
Extended Pharmacy Practice,
it’s the outcome of a study
commissioned by the APC
including an environmental scan
and literature review to define
key terms and concepts around
advanced practice.
“There is compelling evidence
of the increase in therapeutic
interventions and complexity of
medicine use as a result of an
ageing population, increasing
multi-morbidity and co-morbidity
of mental health and physical
disorders,” said accreditation
committee chair Debra Rowett,
who’s also a member of the APC
Steering Committee on Advanced
Practice.
The new document will help
feed into the Advanced Pharmacy
Practice Framework (APPF) 2012,
which was developed about
12 months ago by the steering
committee which is backed by
groups including the AACP, ACP,
APC, PDL, PSA, SHPA, PBA, PPA, the
CPSANZ and the Pharmacy Guild.
