Dataset for "The future of community pharmacy in England: policy, stakeholder and public perspectives"

This archive consists of three related datasets that underpin the associated PhD thesis.

The first dataset relates to a policy review of professional and governmental policy on community pharmacy in England (2008-2017). It consists of data extracted from 25 policies relating to their content, context (social, economic and political), policymaking process and actors involved, and the subsequent coding of these data through thematic analysis.

The second dataset relates to a qualitative interview study with 25 community pharmacy stakeholders to explore their expectations for the future of community pharmacy practice in England. It consists of data collected and analysed to select interviewees via a stakeholder mapping process, the materials developed to support the interviews (e.g. topic guide, participant information), transcriptions of the 25 interviews and the subsequent coding of these data through thematic analysis.

The third dataset relates to a qualitative, reconvened focus group study with 11 community pharmacy users to explore their perceptions, awareness and future expectations of community pharmacy in England. It consists of the materials developed to support the focus groups (e.g. topic guide, participant information), transcriptions of the four focus groups meetings and the subsequent coding of these data through thematic analysis.
