Abstract
Palliative
Homecare Services (PMS) must be delivered by a group of well-trained healthcare
practitioners involving of nurses, physicians, and pharmacists. They must have particular
knowledge and skills to determine the patient’s need rather than their
desirable. Such knowledge and skills should be conformed to a high standard of
practice and well understood by the healthcare practitioners. Nonetheless, most
of the time, the nurses are the sole practitioner who provide PMS in the
absence of physicians and pharmacists. They shall work hand-to-hand with the
patients and family members to ensure the therapy plan established by the
physicians and pharmacists achieves the patients’ needs. For that reason, the
nurses should have the essential knowledge and skills on how to inform the
physicians or pharmacists about wanted or unwanted outcomes notified in the
therapy plan. Therefore, STARZ-DRP is introduced to PMS as a potential approach
or method to guide the nurses, physicians, and pharmacists on how to deliver high
standard of PMS. STARZ-DRP is a simple mnemonic which was established by a
group of clinical researchers from Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia based on
the principle of pharmaceutical care to manoeuvre the healthcare practitioners
to determine patients’ drug-related needs as well as identify, prevent, and
resolve actual or potential drug-related problems. STARZ-DRP had involved in a
validation study to assess its abilities to ascertain the role of the
practitioners to determine the drug-related needs and drug-related problems.
Foremost, STARZ-DRP had involved in a previous study to ensure its
feasibilities to be put into the actual practice. Therefore, it is hope that
the approach shall have the chance to lead the healthcare practitioners the way
to provide PMS.
