The value of the arts and humanities in becoming an "educated" pharmacist is reviewed in this commentary. The term "patient care literacy" is defined as becoming a more humane pharmacist. This implies not only using heads but HARTSS (humanities, arts and social sciences) for developing the necessary skills. A conceptual framework for curricular reform that focuses on using the arts and humanities is proposed for advancing patient care literacy. Methods for enhancing use of arts and humanities for developing pharmacy graduates is specifically proposed. The need for more empiric research to demonstrate the value of the arts and humanities in developing a patient care literate professional is highlighted.
本文评论了艺术和人文学科对于成为“有教养的”药剂师的价值。“患者照护素养”这一术语被定义为成为更有人文关怀的药剂师。这不仅意味着运用头脑，还意味着运用 HARTSS（人文学科、艺术和社会科学）来培养必要的技能。本文提出了一个以艺术和人文学科为重点的课程改革概念框架，以促进患者照护素养。本文还特别提出了增强艺术和人文学科在培养药学毕业生方面应用的方法。本文强调需要进行更多的实证研究，以证明艺术和人文学科在培养有患者照护素养的专业人员方面的价值。
