The demographics of home care pharmacists and the frequency and perceived importance of home care pharmacy tasks were studied. Two questionnaires were mailed in August 1994 to each of 1420 sites that provide home care pharmacy services. Home care pharmacists were asked to provide information on themselves and their companies and to rate 47 home care pharmacy tasks (administrative, clinical, distributive, and miscellaneous) on how often they are performed as part of the job and how essential they are for successful job performance. Of the 2840 surveys mailed to the 1420 sites, questionnaires for 87 sites were not deliverable, leaving an adjusted gross sample of 1333 sites. A total of 393 usable questionnaires were received from 326 sites (net site response rate 24.5%). Respondents tended to be male, have a B.S. degree only, and have more than six years' home care experience. The most commonly identified type of employer was an independent company. Some 34% of respondents said their company had only 1 site; another 33% stated more than 50 sites. Forty-three percent of locations had 2 pharmacist full-time equivalents. Distributive tasks had the highest frequency scores; clinical tasks were performed second most frequently. Distributive and clinical tasks also received high importance scores. The data suggests that, despite other demands on their time, home care pharmacists give considerable attention to tasks consistent with pharmaceutical care. A survey of home care pharmacists provided baseline information on demographics and the frequency and perceived importance of specific tasks.
对家庭护理药剂师的人口统计学特征以及家庭护理药房任务的频率和感知重要性进行了研究。1994年8月，向1420个提供家庭护理药房服务的机构各邮寄了两份调查问卷。要求家庭护理药剂师提供有关他们自己和所在公司的信息，并对47项家庭护理药房任务（行政、临床、配送和其他）进行评分，内容包括这些任务作为工作一部分的执行频率以及对成功完成工作的重要程度。在寄给1420个机构的2840份调查问卷中，有87份问卷无法送达，调整后的总样本为1333个机构。共收到来自326个机构的393份可用问卷（净机构回复率为24.5%）。受访者多为男性，仅拥有学士学位，且有六年以上家庭护理经验。最常见的雇主类型是独立公司。约34%的受访者表示他们的公司只有1个机构；另有33%表示公司有50多个机构。43%的机构有相当于两名全职药剂师的人力。配送任务的频率得分最高；临床任务的执行频率次之。配送和临床任务的重要性得分也很高。数据表明，尽管家庭护理药剂师的时间有其他需求，但他们仍相当重视与药学服务相关的任务。对家庭护理药剂师的调查提供了有关人口统计学特征以及特定任务的频率和感知重要性的基线信息。
