oncology pharmacy

Sažetak
Oncology Pharmacy is a specialized branch of pharmacy, which includes a pharmacist’s activity and service, which complete the personalized treatment of the patient. That presupposes a rational and optimized use of drugs, and activities complementary to those of other medical professionals. A pharmacist will take part in the work of a multiprofessional health care team focusing on oncology pharmacy and oncology pharmacy practice. Oncology pharmacy practice includes activities such as handling antineoplastic drugs and counselling of oncology patients. In order for an oncology pharmacist to take part in professional counselling in everyday work, a special education and training are required. That is why the graduate course at the Centre for Applied Pharmacy performs education and professional training as a part of the subject entitled ‘Pharmaceutical Care’. Students acquire knowledge relative to pharmaceutical care for an oncology patient.
