1987年,美国的Hepler和Stranel提出Pharma ceutical care(药学保健)的概念,为现今的药师提出了新的工作前景。所谓The mission of the pharmacist is to provide pharmaleutical care. Pharmaceutical care is the diret, responable provision of medication—related care for the purpose of achieving definite outcomes that improve a patient's quality of life。(药师的使用是提供药学保健。药学保健是提供直接的、负责的与药物有关的关心照顾。药学保健的目的是获得改善病人生存质量的确定结果。
