Abstract

<p>We conducted a multicenter survey of emergency room nurses to obtain information that would be useful for the establishment of pharmacist services in emergency rooms. Notably, 199 valid responses were obtained from 12 hospitals. The most common expectation from pharmacists in the emergency room was “drug management” (70.9%), followed by “providing information to physicians regarding the patient’s medication history” (59.3%), and “auditing of dosage and interaction” (57.3%). The working arrangements that the survey respondents wanted regarding pharmacists in emergency rooms were: 24 h pharmacist (41.7% wanted this arrangement), day-shift pharmacist (24.6% wanted this arrangement), 24 h on-call (17.1% wanted this arrangement), day-shift on-call (5.0% wanted this arrangement), telephone support (11.1% wanted this arrangement), and 0.5% said that there was no need for pharmacists. In the analysis of factors affecting nurse satisfaction, day-shift pharmacist was a significant factor. We hope that the results of this survey will be used as a guide for the development of emergency room pharmacist services tailored to the unique characteristics and actual working conditions of each hospital.</p>
