Organizational conditions for engagement in quality and safety improvement: a longitudinal qualitative study of community pharmacies.

Phipps DL, Jones CEL, Parker D, Ashcroft DM. BMC Health Serv Res. 2018;18:783.

In this qualitative study, researchers followed the progress of the improvement work taken on by 10 English community pharmacies that participated in improvement workshops over a 1-year period. Using a behavioral change framework, they were able to describe the pharmacies' progress in their activities as well as identify particular organizational factors facilitating improvement work.
