Participants interviewed in this study reported that PBPs had integrated well and perceived a positive impact on primary healthcare delivery. The findings indicated that continued integration would need PBPs, all members of the practice team, and community pharmacists (CPs) to understand each other's roles well and to communicate clearly to ensure the delivery of efficient PBP-led patient care. A number of areas for development were identified such as patient awareness of the role and communication pathways between PBPs and CPs.
