Pharmaceutical Care in Digital Revolution
1st Edition
Insights Towards Circular Innovation
Description
Pharmaceutical Care in Digital Revolution demonstrates how blending human and digital pharmaceutical care can establish optimal Apothecary Intelligence (AI). Organized into four parts, it examines digital health advances that will synergize the pharmaceutical care process and prepares stakeholders for a dynamic future, fueled with innovation. Beginning with the global picture on health care systems, patients’ expectations, and current pharmaceutical care practices, the book covers details of relevant digital technologies as well as compliance, ethical, educational, and cultural aspects to take successful steps towards digital pharmaceutical care. The text includes links to lectures and technology facts, tutorials on how to implement advances in your own working environment, and examples of stakeholders who are successful in building synergy between digital and pharma.
Pharmaceutical Care in Digital Revolution is a practical resource to equip pharmaceutical care stakeholders, such as pharmacists, physicians, pharmacy technicians, and students as well as those in surrounding ecosystems like payers or regulators. It is a crucial reference to understand how technological innovation is changing the paradigm in which we provide current and future pharmaceutical care and how to keep it accessible, affordable, and sustainable.

Reviews
"Pharmaceutical Care in Digital Revolution is a must-read for pharmacists practicing in hospitals or community pharmacies, students, and health researchers active in the field of (clinical) pharmacy who are interested in the use of technology to advance our field."--European Society of Clinical Pharmacy
"With a doubling healthcare demand and a fixed or even declining budget, we’ll never be able to cope with the burden of work we’re facing. Migrating routines with help of technology, assisting patients to collect more data themselves and shifting from treatment to prevention we might be able to stop this cost epidemic. Coming from the age of scaling efficiency we are now stepping into the era of scaling opportunities and learning. Working towards a new paradigm in pharmacy this book guides, teases, informs and teaches about the segway into circular pharmaceutical care." --Lucien Engelen, Global Strategist Digital Health, Deloitte Center for the Edge, Amsterdam - Netherlands
"Pharmacists are having and will be having an important role to drive digital innovation for the benefit of patients as well as the society. There is a lot of demand for clarity, support and education about digital impact in healthcare from patients, caregivers and many more. This is a big challenge, but a great opportunity at the same time. This book will help pharmacists and interacting professions to very well prepare for this new responsibility. It is an excellent source for getting closest to new digital trends and their expected impact on the way pharmacists will interact with people and society. The book is energizing to support and leverage the digital evolution. A great starting point for every pharmacist to creatively think about their role in a digitalizing future." --Herbert Altmann, Region Europe Head Digital Innovation - Novartis Basel - Switzerland
"This book is essential for all pharmacists who want to lead in the digital revolution. The pharmacy profession has always evolved. Changes are now faster, broader and deeper than ever. Thanks to technology, the patient is even more in the center of health systems, receiving better, more efficient and more convenient care in their day to day regular routine. Thus, future skills required for pharmacists will be different from today. Pharmacists are professionals that are expected to keep the ethical balance between technology and humanity. Being informed by an increasing number of digital data, they drive patient outcomes by optimal human pharmaceutical care. This book not only prepares for the day after tomorrow but also greatly inspires by the examples given." --Jaime Antonio Acosta Gómez, Community Pharmacist and immediate past ExCO Member CPS of FIP (International Pharmacy Association) - Spain
