“…Most of these women probably are not practicing because of household or family responsibilities (14). With the projected increase in the proportion of women pharmacists, there probably will be a subsequent increase in the proportion of potential manpower which is not being utilized optimally (12). It must be recognized that women who are temporarily not practicing pharmacy are not the only inactive pharmacists.…”

This study deals with the development and evaluation of a continuing education course designed specifically for temporarily non-practicing pharmacists. The course consisted of a one-hour audio cassette tape and a printed supplement covering materials based on needs expressed by non-practicing pharmacists in a previous study. This study shows that non-practicing pharmacists tend to become isolated from their profession, fail to participate in formal and informal methods of continuing education, and are apparently unable to keep up with changes within pharmacy. However, when provided with continuing education materials designed to fulfill their particular needs, these non-practicing professionals can regain a level of knowledge comparable to their practicing colleagues. Although the study involves only pharmacists, the authors feel the results could be applicable to other professions.

“…To examine how the pharmacist labour market has responded to the increase in demand for prescription drugs a variety of methods have been used: (1) the manpower-population ratio t e c h n i q~e~-~; (2) the supply-demand differential method; 8, 9 and (3) the relative income method. lo Using the supply-demand differential method, Cureton and Jay' estimated the total demand for pharmacists in 1990 to be 183,000 pharmacists for the approximately 66,000 pharmacies in the United States.…”

Internal rates of return were used to examine the status of pharmacist supply in the United States between the years 1987-1991. Age-earnings profiles were estimated for pharmacists, college graduates and high school graduates. Rates of return to pharmacists and college graduates were compared and a ratio of the pharmacist rate to the college graduate rate was computed for each year. Results suggest a shortage of pharmacists in the United States. Enrollments in pharmacy schools and adopted changes in the training of pharmacists are discussed in relation to their effects on the pharmacist labour market.
