Improving the role of community pharmacists in respiratory health [ 2017 - 2018 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Bandana Saini (Principal investigator)

Brief description Given that treatments are effective in addressing symptoms in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), but there is no cure, it is important to focus on strategic ways to use current treatments effectively for optimal management and thus the maximum benefit for the patient. This project proposes an innovative reconfiguration of health systems pathways in COPD patient care by using specialised trained pharmacists working closely with GPs in providing evidence based care.
