Discover people-centred decision-making for pharmacists in this clear and practical volume
Pharmacy ethics and decision-making are a critical part of pharmaceutical care. Pharmacists are routinely faced with decisions that impact the immediate and long-term health of patients, and must exercise professional judgement when the best choices are uncertain.
Current guides to ethical decision-making in healthcare are generally written for doctors or nurses, overlooking the distinctive needs of pharmacy professionals in this crucial area of practice.
People-Centred Pharmacy: Ethical Challenges in Everyday Practice remedies this oversight with a down-to-earth discussion of the common ethical dilemmas pharmacists face. Offering a commonsense focus, the book articulates an approach to practical ethical reasoning that considers the interests of all involved, including the pharmacist. The result is an invaluable resource for pharmacists and those studying the subject.
Readers will also find:
A text written in collaboration with pharmacy educators Concrete examples drawn from empirical research into pharmacy practice An interdisciplinary approach to the many dilemmas pharmacists face
People-Centred Pharmacy: Ethical Challenges in Everyday Practice is ideal for all pharmacy staff, as well as all students of pharmacy.
