Reliability modelling of dispensing processes in community pharmacy (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Naybour, M., Remenyte-Prescott, R., & Boyd, M. (2018). Reliability modelling of dispensing processes in community pharmacy. In Proceedings of the 10th IMA International Conference on Modelling in Industrial Maintenance and Reliability. https://doi.org/10.19124/ima.2018.001.18

Studies of error rates in community pharmacies have reported error rates of between 0.014% and 3.3% per item dispensed. This suggests up to 36 million items per year may contain errors in England. In addition, literature shows that patient satisfacti... Read More about Reliability modelling of dispensing processes in community pharmacy.

Evaluation of a "flipped" classroom model within a pharmacy professional practice class: a comparison across three consecutive cohorts (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Naik, P., Balashanker, S., Emtage, A., & Boyd, M. (2017). Evaluation of a "flipped" classroom model within a pharmacy professional practice class: a comparison across three consecutive cohorts.

Background: The “flipped” classroom model promotes student responsibility for learning and increased one-on-one interaction with the instructor (Bergmann & Sams, 2012) allowing classroom time to be maximised for more complex activities. This model wa... Read More about Evaluation of a "flipped" classroom model within a pharmacy professional practice class: a comparison across three consecutive cohorts.
