Community Pharmacy Handbook Reviews

'This book is an essential guide for community pharmacists and pre-registration students, providing background information on the new pharmacy contract and detailing ways in which new services may be set up...the language and layout are user- friendly and the multiple choice questions and case studies at the end of each chapter help to reinforce the information provided.'
Christine Kelly, community pharmacy adviser, Northern Health and Social Services Board, Chemist and Druggist, published online on October 2008

-- Christine Kelly * Chemist and Druggist *

'This format is very useful, with answers given to each exercise, which maximises the learning potential of the book...the general chapters contain a lot of information one might otherwise pay a small fortune for at a management or training seminar.'
Sinead McCool (Course Co-ordinator, M.Sc. Clinical Pharmacy, CACT/ UCC) Irish Pharmacy Journal, July 2008

-- Sinead McCool * Irish Pharmacy Journal *

'Overall this is a useful resource for continuing professional development, initiation of new clinical practice services, and improving patient care in the community and setting. This book serves as a guide to help pharmacists prepare and transition into a more clinically relevant and effective practice setting.'
Jamila L Stanton, Doody Enterprises, Pharm. D. (Temple University of Pharmacy), Doody's Notes, June 2008

-- Jamila L Stanton * Doody's Notes *

'I believe community pharmacists could gain great management skills from this book, and with the text written by a pharmacist, the theory has already been adapted to our unique working environment.'
