Schimbări importante pentru pacienții români. Farmaciile ar putea prelua un rol mai mare în prevenție și vaccinare

Pharmacies could enhance public health by expanding vaccination services and chronic disease monitoring, as discussed at the "Farma Conect" conference. Countries like Italy and Hungary have successfully implemented similar models, showing the potential for pharmacies to improve healthcare access. Romania has the chance to adopt these successful practices, including HPV vaccination in pharmacies. Collaboration between doctors and pharmacists is crucial for effective preventive services, with pilot projects proposed to measure outcomes. Portugal's experience highlights the need for training and new competencies among pharmacists to ensure service delivery. Integrating pharmaceutical and medical services could lead to better patient monitoring and resource efficiency in healthcare.
