Pharmacists who will graduate from the 6-year program are expected to have more clinical ability than those who graduate from the 4-year program. In 2008, the Japanese Society of Hospital Pharmacists designed a plan, “New development of the expanded pharmacist's practices”. In some medical facilities and educational facilities some pharmacists and pharmacy students are performing new clinical practices even though the practices are not clarified in existing medical law.So far, medical law has indicated the roles of pharmacists as only “dispensing drugs”. We should reconsider whether the concept of “dispensing drugs” includes some part of medical practices and how pharmacists should develop their expanded roles practically. We must discuss them concretely including the revision and the interpretation of the existing medical law.

In order to clarify the status of clinical skills education in the faculties of pharmaceutical sciences at pharmacy schools in Japan,we carried out a questionnaire survey of such faculties at 74 schools in Japan.The results revealed that 67.9% of the pharmacy schools were providing clinical skills education such as that regarding physical assessment and assessment of vital signs.As for the amount of time spent in education on clinical skills,the median lecture time was 225 minutes and the median practical training time was 540 minutes.The ranking of lecture content was :[1]basic knowledge related to vital signs,[2]basic knowledge related to electrocardiography,[3]basic knowledge related to clinical laboratory test results,[4]pathophysiology and symptomatology and[5]Procedures for using assessment equipment,and the ranking of practical training :[1]primary or secondary emergency medical care,[2] assessment of vital signs,[3]electrocardiography measurements and analysis,[4]auscultation,[5]nursing and patient care.The ranking for equipment available at pharmacy schools was :[1]stethoscope (availability rate 50.9%),[2]mercury sphygmomanometer (41.5%),[3]AED trainer (24.5 %),[4]electrocardiograph (22.6%),[5]pulse oxymeter (20.8%).Based on the results of our survey,it is felt that clinical skills education in pharmaceutical science courses will enhance the professional capabilities of pharmacists,and enable them to make greater contributions in various fields including emergency medical care and home medical care.

The concept of interprofessional work (IPW) is becoming increasingly important recently and the role of nurses in IPW seems critical. In Japan, the problem of burnout and turnover of nurses has been recognized, and the solution seems embedded in the scheme of IPW, because it appears to improve their job satisfaction and recognition as health professionals. However, many obstacles lie ahead, such as “tribal conflict” between health professionals including between pharmacists and nurses. Although failure to understand the roles of other professionals or competencies may seem to hamper with the promotion of collaboration, we must realize that even a lack of understanding among nurses exists. The authors believe that the solution is to understand and respect not only other professionals but also colleagues of the same profession.
