Quality of care of patients presenting prescriptions at community charmacies in a region of Ghana

Abstract

Quality of patient care may be assessed through rational use of medicine indicators initially developed in collaboration with WHO. These assessments have been carried out in primary level government clinics and hospital settings across the world, however, very little information is available on the assessment of the quality of patient care in community pharmacies, particularly in LMIC countries like Ghana, despite the fact that community pharmacies are an integral part of the health system.
