Impact of COVID-19 on Pharmacy Education and Practice : Strategies to Boost Advocacy and Unity among Health Care Organizations

Copyright © 2023. Published by Elsevier Inc..

The global COVID-19 pandemic impacted pharmacy education and changed the pharmacists' scope of practice at the federal and state levels. Based on the Amended Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, pharmacists were authorized to provide essential services, including testing, treatments, and immunizations at various practice settings. Specifically, the United States Food and Drug Administration issued emergency use authorization for several medications, vaccines, and medical devices. The pandemic also affected the regulatory landscape for pharmacists, pharmacy education, access to care, and delivery of pharmacy services in-person and through telehealth. The pandemic's specific impact on pharmacy education heightened awareness of the well-being of the Academy. This commentary will highlight the impact of COVID-19 on both pharmacy education and practice. It will also provide strategies that educators, researchers, and practitioners can take into future research and action to help promote advocacy and unity among pharmacy organizations.
