TY - JOUR T1 - A prescription for improved chronic disease management: Have community pharmacists function at the top of their training: comment on “engaging physicians and pharmacists in providing smoking cessation counseling” AU - Guglielmo B Y1 - 2010/10/11 N1 - 10.1001/archinternmed.2010.343 JO - Archives of Internal Medicine SP - 1646 EP - 1647 VL - 170 IS - 18 N2 - In a recent commentary, Grumbach1 suggested a Bauhaus Delivery Systems Principles approach to the redesign of the health care delivery system: all health care workers should function at the top of their level of training and skill with genuine teamwork. For doctoral-level trained pharmacists, this would mean that they “would not count pills” but instead “would counsel patients about complex polypharmacy regimens and spearhead interventions to eliminate medication errors, with pharmacy technicians and automated devices handling medication dispensing in retail pharmacies.”1(p2364) SN - 0003-9926 M3 - doi: 10.1001/archinternmed.2010.343 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archinternmed.2010.343 ER -
