  11. What were the KEY recommendations from the PPMI Summit?

  12. Key Recommendations • All patients should have a right to receive the care of a pharmacist. • Hospital and health-system pharmacists must be responsible and accountable for patients’ medication-related outcomes. • Every pharmacy department should develop a plan to reallocate its resources to devote significantly more pharmacist time to medication management services. • Pharmacists who provide drug therapy management should be certified through the most appropriate board of pharmacy specialties. • Pharmacist-provided drug therapy management should be prioritized using a patient medication complexity index.

  13. Key Recommendations (cont.) • A patient medication complexity index should be developed that includes factors such as severity of illness, number of medications, and comorbidities. • In optimal pharmacy practice models, individual pharmacists must accept responsibility for both the clinical and the distributive activities of the pharmacy department. • Sufficient pharmacy resources must be available to safely develop, implement, and maintain technology-related medication-use safety standards. • By 2015, the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board should require completion of an accredited training program before an individual can take the certification examination. • To support optimal pharmacy practice models, technicians must be licensed by state boards of pharmacy.

  14. Case Study • Site = Cleveland Clinic Florida • PPMI recommendation in action • B24c. Develop a plan to allocate pharmacy student time to drug therapy management services. • Students incorporated in the following ways: • Functioned as pharmacist extenders • Worked up and rounded Computer access to patient information and were able to round on daily basis • Accommodated ~15 APPE students/month
