With recent changes in health-care delivery, the profession of pharmacy is presented with opportunities for expanded involvement in direct patient care as mid-level practitioners/providers. Will pharmacists be proactive in realizing these opportunities? Expanding current roles to improve medication-related health outcomes for patients will require that pharmacists establish collaborative practice relationships, differentiate our unique services from those of other mid-level practitioners/providers, and share these results with the public and other health-care providers. This article encourages pharmacists to advocate for advancing pharmacy practice to meet the needs of society, to continue the dialogue regarding an expanded scope of practice for pharmacists as mid-level practitioners/providers, and to actively engage in developing these new roles.
随着医疗保健服务的最新变化，药剂师作为中级从业者/提供者，有机会扩大直接参与患者护理的机会。药剂师会积极主动地抓住这些机会吗？扩大当前的角色以改善患者的药物相关健康结果，需要药剂师建立合作实践关系，将我们的独特服务与其他中级从业者/提供者区分开来，并与公众和其他医疗保健提供者分享这些结果。本文鼓励药剂师倡导推进药学实践以满足社会的需求，继续就药剂师作为中级从业者/提供者扩大实践范围进行对话，并积极参与开发这些新角色。
