Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the current situation of pharmaceutical management in compact medical consortium of Guangdong province, and to provide decision-making basis for promoting the high-quality construction and sustainable development of the provincial medical consortium. METHODS A self-designed questionnaire was used to select 50 compact medical consortiums in Guangdong province. The survey was answered by the heads of the pharmacy department of the general hospitals. The survey covered the basic scale of the consortium, the appointment of chief pharmacists, the implementation of pharmaceutical management and pharmaceutical care homogenization within the consortium, the difficulties in promoting the homogenization, and the expected provincial support. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed on the survey results. RESULTS A total of 50 questionnaires were collected, and the effective recovery rate was 100%. There were 16 chief pharmacists (32.00%) in charge of the pharmacy department of the general hospital in the medical consortium. Thirty-seven medical consortiums (74.00%) had established a drug supply support system within the consortium, 35 medical consortiums (70.00%) had carried out pharmaceutical management and coordination work within the medical consortium, 23 medical consortiums (46.00%) had established a clinical medication guidance system, 25 medical consortiums chenwenying2016@163.com (50.00%) had established a bidirectional communication mechanism, and only 8 medical consortiums (16.00%) had developed new models of pharmaceutical care. At present, the difficulties in promoting the homogenization of pharmaceutical management and pharmaceutical care within the medical consortium were mainly found in three aspects: the wide gap in management level of each member unit, the lack and uneven level of pharmaceutical personnel, and insufficient policy support and implementation. Most medical consortiums hoped that relevant departments could promote the homogenization of pharmaceutical work by holding special training courses or special supervision. CONCLUSIONS At present, the compact medical consortium in Guangdong province has achieved initial results in the implementation of the chief pharmacist system, the homogenization of pharmaceutical management and pharmaceutical care. However, it is still necessary to improve the coverage of chief pharmacist appointments in the medical consortium, implement the homogenization of pharmaceutical management, and accelerate the homogenization process of pharmaceutical care.
