Nowadays, the community pharmacist's role is undergoing profound transformations. As a healthcare provider of the National Health Service, pharmacists are expanding their expertise in Public Health through disease prevention and health promotion programme. In relation to health education and health promotion interventions, this research was aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of a selected sample of private and public pharmacists, working in the Province of Perugia and Terni, Umbria region.
Cross-sectional study conducted using two detection tools: a 29-items self-administered, anonymous questionnaire and a 21-items environmental evaluation sheet, compiled by students of Pharmaceutical Sciences.
70% of umbrian pharmacists participated in the project, 68.9% of them consider health education interventions "very important", 57% support the gratuity of these interventions with a 14.5 hours/week dedicated to these activities.
The survey shows a good pharmacist sensitivity to the issues of health education. Actually, the pharmacist can and should play an essential role in responsibly involving all citizens in promoting new health behaviours in collaboration with physicians.
如今，社区药剂师的角色正在经历深刻变革。作为国民医疗服务体系的医疗服务提供者，药剂师正通过疾病预防和健康促进项目拓展其在公共卫生领域的专业知识。关于健康教育和健康促进干预措施，本研究旨在评估在翁布里亚大区佩鲁贾省和特尔尼省工作的部分私立和公立药剂师的知识、态度和行为。
采用两种检测工具进行横断面研究：一份由药学院学生编制的包含29个条目的自填式匿名问卷和一份包含21个条目的环境评估表。
70%的翁布里亚药剂师参与了该项目，其中68.9%的人认为健康教育干预措施“非常重要”，57%的人支持这些干预措施免费提供，每周为此投入14.5小时。
调查显示药剂师对健康教育问题具有良好的敏感度。实际上，药剂师能够且应该在与医生合作让所有公民积极参与促进新的健康行为方面发挥重要作用。
