  • Medicines Optimisation: a Pharmacist’S Contribution to Delivery and Education
    Medicines optimisation: A pharmacist’s contribution to delivery and education Barry JUBRAJ This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Kingston University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Publication July 2019 Electronic version minus publications This work was funded by Pharmacy Research UK (Grant reference PRUK-2018-TB-L1-1-BJ) The views expressed are those of the author and not necessarily that of Pharmacy Research UK. Word count (excluding abstract, acknowledgements, contents list, references and appendices) = 29,980 PhD by Publication – Barry Jubraj Medicines optimisation: A pharmacist’s contribution to delivery and education Abstract This thesis describes the author’s publication history from 2001 to 2019, and relates this to their key career milestones from registration as a pharmacist in 1991. From a career output of over 80 items published in a variety of media, eleven key publications form the basis of four publication themes, which the author has related to the concept of medicines optimisation. An exemplar case is used to illustrate these publication themes, arranged into four chapters: a) improving the patient experience and supporting medication adherence b) providing safe care: medication review, polypharmacy and deprescribing c) making medicines optimisation part of routine practice through clinical education, and d) supporting safe practice through professional and personal development of healthcare staff. Following Chapter 1 (introduction), the second chapter discusses the author’s contribution to the medication adherence agenda which closely relates to their outputs encouraging the development of pharmacists’ consultation skills, particularly with patients who have a learning disability. The third chapter discusses the author’s published outputs in the areas of medication review, polypharmacy and deprescribing, the success of which they outline as contingent on the improved communication skills and person-centred approach described in Chapter 2.
