摘要

目的:自 20 世纪 80 年代初以来,物流和供应链管理就受到了全球的关注,但在尼日利亚,人们认为这一概念仍然不受欢迎,因为有关它的文献很少,尤其是在制药行业。因此,本文旨在调查尼日利亚药剂师在物流和供应链管理方面的人力资源能力和需求评估:这项横向研究是在尼日利亚的药剂师中进行的。共有 873 名药剂师参加了研究。制作、验证并向注册药剂师发放了一份结构合理的调查问卷:在收回的 873 份问卷中,有 21 份没有填写完整,因此被丢弃;因此,852 份填写完整的问卷被视为参与研究的人数。调查显示,在 51.76% 接受过培训的药剂师中,18.2% 是在工作场所接触到供应链管理的,30.9% 是通过会议和研讨会进行自我培训的。此外,98.8%的受访者愿意接受尼日利亚这一新兴领域的培训,只有 1.2%的受访者对供应链管理培训不感兴趣:这些调查结果表明,针对药剂师的主动供应链管理教育很少。然而,由于大多数受访者都乐于接受这种创新,因此引入这种培训的机会还是很有希望的。因此,这项研究可能有助于政策制定者和卫生专业人员规划未来的发展道路,以确保药品和其他卫生用品的充足和适当供应。

LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT: HUMAN RESOURCE CAPACITY AND TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF PHARMACISTS IN NIGERIA
Objective: Logistics and supply chain management have received global attention since the early 1980s, but this concept is thought to still be unpopular in Nigeria as very little literature exists on it, especially in the pharmaceutical sector. This paper, therefore set out to investigate the human resource capacity and the needs assessment of pharmacists in Nigeria as regards logistics and supply chain management. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among pharmacists in Nigeria. A total of 873 pharmacists participated in the study. A well-structured questionnaire was produced, validated, and administered to the registered pharmacists. Results: Out of the 873 retrieved questionnaires, 21 copies were not completely filled and were therefore discarded; hence the 852 completely filled questionnaires were taken as the number of participants in the study. The survey shows that out of the 51.76% pharmacists who have acquired trainings, 18.2% were exposed to supply chain management by virtue of their workplace, while 30.9% were self-trained through conferences and workshops. Also, 98.8% of the respondents were ready to be trained in this emerging field in Nigeria, with only 1.2% declining any interest in supply chain management training. Conclusion: These findings show that there is a low provision for proactive education on supply chain management for pharmacists. However, there is a promising opportunity to introduce such training as the majority of the respondents were receptive to such an innovation. This study may, therefore be useful for policymakers and health professionals to chart the path for the future to ensure adequate and proper delivery of medicines and other health commodities.
