Pharmacy Practice Model Initiative
The Pharmacy Practice Model Initiative (PPMI) is a structured approach aimed at transforming the role of pharmacists within healthcare settings. It focuses on expanding pharmacists' responsibilities beyond dispensing medications to include patient-centered services like medication management, health screenings, and education. The goal is to enhance medication safety, improve patient outcomes, and integrate pharmacists more closely into direct patient care teams. By redefining pharmacy practice, PPMI promotes a more proactive and collaborative role for pharmacists, ultimately leading to more effective, efficient, and holistic healthcare delivery.
