Continuing education in pharmacy: A cross-sectional study exploring pharmacists attitudes and perceptions

摘要

The pharmacy profession has changed enormously in the recent decades. Pharmacist role has been expanded beyond formulating and dispensing medications to include the provision of pharmaceutical care and public health services to patients. Patient-centred care requires sustained competency through improving pharmacist’s knowledge, skills, and performance. Such improvements require pharmacist’s involvement in continuing education activities although it is optional in Kuwait.
