To date (as of May 28, 2009), there are 359 individual members. ACCP PBRN pharmacists provide clinical services an average of 5 half-days (±3 days) per week. This represents a total of 1165 half-days/week. For the 356 who see patients, the mean number of patients seen by our PBRN members each week is 45 ± 50 (0–200). This equates to 9120 patient encounters by our PBRN clinical pharmacist members in 1 week. Only 9% have any dispensing activities. Of those, the average is 11 hours/week spent dispensing. About 38% use scope of practice agreements. Virtually all of the PRNs are represented. The ACCP PBRN membership reflects a true cross section of the ACCP membership.
