“…As a consequence they are one of a small number of medicines routinely supplied with written information additional to the pharmacist's label and the manufacturer's leaflet inside the pack. Internationally, such additional information is produced by national agencies in Australia (booklet) [10], the USA (leaflet) [11] and in the UK (known as the 'Yellow Booklet') [12].…”

“…Suboptimal warfarin knowledge levels may result from education that is inadequate or too complex to meet patients’ needs or delivered at the wrong time or place . There is a tendency to rely on a single verbal warfarin counselling session and supply of written material often just prior to hospital discharge, and patients may fail to receive even this due to workload issues …”

Use of an existing healthcare framework overcame several systemic barriers by facilitating warfarin education in patients' homes. While the intervention was associated with better short-term warfarin knowledge, follow-up may be required to optimise its benefits. Widespread implementation of home-based warfarin education by pharmacists has the potential to contribute significantly to improved outcomes from warfarin therapy.

“…Researchers investigated patients' perspectives on diverse aspects of care service: waiting time [20,21], interaction and interpersonal skills [21,22], professionalism [23,24], occupancy [25], patient preferences and expectations [26,27], coordination of care [22,28], education and information provision [22,29,30], emotional support [31,32], and quality of medical care [33,34].…”

Patients’ Perspectives on the Design of Hospital Outpatient Areas

There is a growing interest among healthcare managers and designers in moving towards a 'patient-centred' design of health and care facilities by integrating patient perceptions and expectations of the physical environment where care takes place. Increased interests in physical environments can mostly be attributed to our improved understanding of their role in patients' health outcomes and staff productivity. There is a gap in the literature on users' perspectives on physical settings in the context of healthcare. Moreover, the connection of care services with the design of the facility is often overlooked partly due to the lack of evidence. This research was aimed at filling the gap by exploring outpatients' perspectives on design factors related to the areas frequented by them, e.g., hospital waiting areas. A 16-item questionnaire was conducted among randomly selected outpatients in two hospitals in Qingdao, China, with a response rate of 84.3%. Five principal factors were identified: sensory; lighting and thermal; facilities; spatial; and seating design, which agreed with the literature. Non-parametric tests were applied to assess variances in constructed principal dimensions concerning demographic variables. Female outpatients were found to be more perceptive of the 'sensory design' factors than males. The number of previous visits to the hospital was found to be associated with 'spatial' and 'seating design' factors, while respondents' age had an association with 'sensory' and 'seating design' factors. Respondents ranked 'noise' and 'air freshness' and 'cleanliness' as highly important.
