Validation of a hospital clinical pharmacy workforce calculator: A methodology for pharmacy?

Bednall, Ruth; White, Simon; Mills, Elizabeth; Thomson, Susan

Abstract

The benefits of clinical pharmacy services are established within hospital practice but staff numbers required for service delivery are not well described and staffing levels vary. The need for a consistent, objective method of determining staffing levels was recognised at a UK University Hospital and a Clinical Pharmacy Workforce Calculator (CPWC) was developed.
