    What can pharmacists do?

     6. Domiciliary services
     • The Pharmacist could provide an advisory as well as a supply

       service to residential homes for the elderly, and other long-term
       patients.
     • In some countries, policies are being developed under which
       pharmacists will visit certain categories of house-bound
       patients to provide the counselling service that the patients
       would have received had they been able to visit the pharmacy.
