Restructuring supervision and reconfiguration of skill mix in community pharmacy: Classification of perceived safety and risk.
Broadening the range of services provided through community pharmacy increases workloads for pharmacists that could be alleviated by reconfiguring roles within the pharmacy team. ⋯ This paper presents novel empirical evidence informing the categorization of pharmacy activities into 'safe,' 'borderline' or 'unsafe.' 'Borderline' activities will deserve particular attention, especially where they are part of processes, e.g. dispensing. This categorization could help inform reconfiguration of skill mix in community pharmacy and thus make an important contribution to the rebalancing medicines legislation agenda and pharmacist supervision.
