Pharmacists are at the forefront of public health. Their public-facing roles exceptionally position them to recognize and address developing disease challenges, inconsistencies in health literacy, and obstacles to treatment in the communities they serve. In today’s interrelated world, the clients referring to a neighborhood pharmacist are just as likely to belong from across an ocean as they are from around the corner. Appropriately, OUP’sIntroduction to Public Health in Pharmacy,2nd Edition, (PDF) takes an approach that is both local and global. Macro-level examinations of health care systems and funding mechanisms around the world and information for culturally competent, client-centered communication about nutrition and proper self-administration of medications summarize pharmacists’ dual roles as guardians of global public health and offers of personalized care.
Written in accordance with the up-to-date guidelines from the Center for the Advancement of Pharmacy Education, Introduction to Public Health in Pharmacy 2e offers an understandable introduction for pharmacy students and a complete refresher for pharmacists already in practice.
