    • Pharmacy Practice
    • Ambulatory Care
    • Health Services Research

    Background:

    • Understanding patient demographics is crucial for developing effective, patient-centered pharmacy services.
    • Ambulatory care settings require specific service models tailored to the patient population they serve.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the demographic profile of patients visiting the Sunol Health Center (SHC) pharmacy.
    • To inform the planning and design of patient-oriented pharmacy services and pharmacist training.

    Main Methods:

    • A 6-month retrospective analysis of patient data was conducted at the SHC pharmacy in Los Angeles, California.
    • Demographic information, disease conditions, and medication data were collected and analyzed.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Female patients accounted for double the number of visits compared to male patients.
    • Ten specific disease conditions requiring drug therapy represented 75% of patient issues.
    • The average patient received 1.7 prescribed medications, with new prescriptions (70%) outnumbering refills (30%).
    • New patient visits (55%) were slightly more common than return visits (45%).

    Conclusions:

    • The demographic and clinical profile of SHC patients provides actionable insights for service development.
    • Pharmacist training and pharmacy services can be specifically designed to meet the identified needs of this ambulatory care patient population.
