Objective Home pharmaceutical care delivers individualised, whole-process and continuous pharmaceutical services and health education. This study aims to explore the feasibility of home pharmaceutical services as a combination of medical and nursing care. Methods Patient information was collected from 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2021 and was analysed and evaluated. We then developed a family medication plan and investigated its effectiveness and any issues encountered during the implementation process. Results A total of 102 patients received services, and 100% of the patients were satisfied with these. Moreover, using home pharmaceutical care saved approximately USD1,359.64 (RMB9,360.45) in outpatient costs and USD41,077.76 (RMB282,700) in inpatient costs, and the number of hospitalisations was reduced by 16%. Conclusion It is beneficial to make home pharmaceutical services available as a combination of medical and nursing care. Pharmacists can help patients solve medication-related problems and reduce the number of hospitalisations and medical costs through standardised service models while ensuring safe, effective, economical and rational drug use for patients.

“…Concerning incentives, the reason might be attributed to the preference of females to occupy lower positions which are associated with lower income – compared to males – which is described as a ‘gender pay gap' (Gidman et al, 2012 ). In this regard, Melanie et al highlighted the importance of improving factors influencing the work pattern of female CPs (Dodd et al, 2022 ). Meanwhile, other similar studies respondents agreed that university curriculum influences the perception of graduates to extend their role (Cline & Mehta, 2022 ; Weiss et al, 2024 ).…”

“…At the curricular level, there is evidence that interprofessional education on nutrition and lifestyle coaching can improve student confidence (including for pharmacy students) in the coaching of families [ 59 ]. Clearly, pharmacists have a key responsibility alongside other healthcare providers in meeting patient primary care needs [ 60 ]. However, there is limited information in general about pharmacists’ views on interprofessional education or collaborative practice [ 55 ].…”

With global chronic disease rates on the rise, diet and nutrition remain pivotal yet under-appreciated aspects of healthcare, including in pharmacy practice. This perspective paper delves into how current United States health policies support nutrition’s role in healthcare and its integration into pharmacy practice. The paper also reviews the landscape of nutrition education and training for pharmacists, pharmacy roles in multidisciplinary teams and interprofessional nutrition care, and the opportunities for post-graduate nutrition-focused certification, training, and continuing education. It advocates for a paradigm shift towards greater emphasis on nutrition within pharmacy practice, to improve skills and benefit quality patient nutrition care.
