Abstract

The sale of antibiotics without a prescription is a serious issue in Vietnam, particularly in the inner city of Hanoi, where this practice remains prevalent despite strict regulations. This has significant negative impacts on public health, including the issue of antimicrobial resistance. This study aims to evaluate the factors influencing the sale of antibiotics without a prescription at retail pharmacies in the inner city of Hanoi, focusing on the districts of Bac Tu Liem and Nam Tu Liem. A cross-sectional study was conducted from July to December 2024, targeting pharmacy staff at pharmacies meeting GPP (Good Pharmacy Practice) standards. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and linear regression. Three main factors influencing the sale of antibiotics without a prescription were identified: (1) Belief in benefits (β = 0.273), (2) Ability to perform and control behavior (β = 0.480), and (3) External influencing factors (β = 0.473). The regression model explained 52.9% of the variance in the willingness to sell antibiotics without a prescription. The findings suggest the need to strengthen training and raise awareness among pharmacy staff about the harms of selling antibiotics without a prescription while also improving policies for controlling and monitoring the sale of antibiotics to reduce this issue.

Abstract

Medical waste management is a critical component in safeguarding public health and environmental sustainability. It is also an essential factor in ensuring effective and safe operations at healthcare facilities, requiring a well-trained and competent workforce. This study aims to assess the current level of knowledge and attitudes of final-year nursing students at Nam Dinh University of Nursing, Vietnam, regarding medical waste segregation. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 240 final-year nursing students. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire comprising three sections: personal demographic information, knowledge of medical waste segregation, and attitudes toward the practice. Descriptive statistics and inferential analyses, including t-tests and chi-square tests, were used to explore associations between knowledge and attitudes and factors such as gender, academic performance, and self-study habits. Results: Only 41.3% of students demonstrated adequate knowledge regarding medical waste segregation, and up to 65% exhibited negative or non-positive attitudes toward the issue. Academic performance and self-directed learning habits were significantly associated with both knowledge and attitudes. Students with higher academic achievement and regular self-study routines tended to have better knowledge and more positive attitudes. The findings reveal that both knowledge and attitudes toward medical waste segregation among nursing students at Nam Dinh University of Nursing remain limited. Enhancing the nursing curriculum, raising awareness, and providing specialized training sessions on medical waste management are essential steps to strengthen public health protection efforts.

Abstract

In the context of Vietnam's efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), improving the quality of the healthcare workforce, particularly in the pharmacy sector, plays a foundational role. This article analyzes the role of educational accreditation as a strategic tool for training a generation of pharmacists who meet the demands of sustainable development. Using a literature review method and analyzing policy documents, the paper clarifies the multidimensional relationship between accreditation of pharmacy training programs and the implementation of these goals, particularly Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages). The study indicates that, despite encouraging results (with 22 accredited pharmacy training programs by September 2024), the biggest challenge remains the shift from a “compliance” mindset to the creation of a true “quality culture” in training institutions, along with challenges related to resource limitations and the applicability of accreditation standards. Based on this, the paper proposes coordinated solutions involving government authorities, educational institutions, and society to improve the effectiveness of accreditation efforts, contributing to national healthcare security and promoting sustainable development.
