Implementing the pharmacists’ patient care process at a public pharmacy school

Abstract

The Joint Commission of Pharmacy Practitioners has provided the profession of pharmacy a patient-centered care model known as the Pharmacists’ Patient Care Process (PPCP). This process will serve to provide consistency throughout the profession as it becomes incorporated throughout pharmacy practice and education. A description of the early stages of implementing the PPCP at one public college of pharmacy provides insights into opportunities for education and assessment.
