To examine the relationship between pharmacy college/school affiliation and community pharmacies' involvement in immunization and emergency preparedness activities.
Telephone interviews were completed with 1,704 community pharmacies randomly sampled from 17 states to determine the pharmacies' involvement in immunization promotion, vaccine distribution, in-house immunization delivery, and health emergency preparedness and response, affiliation with college/school of pharmacy, and selected pharmacy and public health-related characteristics.
Pharmacy college/school-affiliated community pharmacies were more likely than non-affiliated pharmacies to participate in immunization and emergency preparedness when controlling for pharmacy characteristics. College/school affiliation generally became nonsignificant, however, when public health-related characteristics were included in the analysis.
Affiliation with a college/school of pharmacy was related to community pharmacies' involvement in immunization and emergency preparedness.
研究药学院/校隶属关系与社区药房参与免疫接种和应急准备活动之间的关系。
从 17 个州中随机抽取 1704 家社区药房进行电话访谈,以确定药房在疫苗推广、疫苗分发、店内接种、卫生应急准备和响应、与药学院/校的隶属关系以及选定的药房和公共卫生相关特征方面的参与情况。
在控制了药房特征后,药学院/校附属社区药房参与免疫接种和应急准备的可能性高于非附属药房。然而,当分析中包括与公共卫生相关的特征时,学院/校隶属关系通常变得不显著。
