Needs assessment of global pharmaceutical development goals: an explanatory mixed-methods study of 21 countries.
Objectives: Investment in the development of the pharmacy workforce has been recognized as crucial for achieving universal health coverage. The 21 International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) Development Goals (DGs) have been used when conducting national needs assessments in several countries to provide evidence-based policy on workforce development. This study aimed to explore factors contributing to education and training in a FIP sample of mainly low- to middle-income countries (LMICs), and current national policy initiatives and priorities, mapped against the FIP DGs.
Methods: The study employed a mixed-methods approach, including an online survey questionnaire and interviews with representatives from 26 national professional organizations from 21 countries. A Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), descriptive analysis, and thematic analysis were carried out to analyse the data.
Key findings: A total of 26 national professional organizations from 21 countries participated in this study. The quantitative MCA results indicated categorical correlations with variables related to the maintenance of licensed pharmacy practice and mechanisms for personal career development and advancement, such as the availability of competency development frameworks. Six themes emerged from the qualitative analysis of ongoing national programmes in the sampled countries: strengthening initial education and training, competency and career development programmes, initiatives related to pharmacists' role in patient safety, communicable diseases, and antimicrobial stewardship, pharmaceutical care and medicines access, strengthening research to improve pharmacists' impact, and outcomes and policy review and development.
Conclusion: This study provided an evidence-based needs assessment exploring factors contributing to workforce development and identifying pharmaceutical development priorities mapped to the FIP DGs across a cohort of nations.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Pharmacy Practice (IJPP) is a Medline-indexed, peer reviewed, international journal. It is one of the leading journals publishing health services research in the context of pharmacy, pharmaceutical care, medicines and medicines management. Regular sections in the journal include, editorials, literature reviews, original research, personal opinion and short communications. Topics covered include: medicines utilisation, medicine management, medicines distribution, supply and administration, pharmaceutical services, professional and patient/lay perspectives, public health (including, e.g. health promotion, needs assessment, health protection) evidence based practice, pharmacy education. Methods include both evaluative and exploratory work including, randomised controlled trials, surveys, epidemiological approaches, case studies, observational studies, and qualitative methods such as interviews and focus groups.
