2 Alomi, et al.: Primary Care Center Pharmacists Workforce in audi Arabia REULT The total numbers of hospitals were hospitals,, primary care centers, and administration regions. The total numbers of pharmacists were, distributed at hospital, (. %), at primary care centers (. %) while administration regions (. %) the last update information October as explored in Table. The average numbers of primary care centers were (,.) with a range number of (,-,), and the total number was (,). The highest region had a number of primary care centers were (.) followed by (.) and regions (.) of PCC. The average numbers of primary care center pharmacists were (.) with a range number of (-), and the total number was (). The highest region had a number of primary care center pharmacists was () followed the by (.) and East Province regions (.) pharmacists as explore in Table and Table. The average gender distribution of all primary care center pharmacists was male. (.%) and female. (.%). The average nationality distributions of all primary care center pharmacists were audi (.%) and non-audi. (.%). Of audi primary care center pharmacists. (.%) were male and. (. %) were female as explored in Table, and. DICUION The inistry of Health over the past several years have increased the number of primary care healthcare centers several times over twenty regions. [] The OH during strategic health planning updated the skeletons, geographic locations, internal departments, the type of level devices, and type of specialties. In addition to primary care centers standard collaborations with audi Center for Healthcare Accreditation. [] The pharmacy administration founded national pharmacy practice and clinical program, national pharmacy administration program, primary care pharmacy administration, PCC pharmacist competencies and primary care pharmacy workforce. [,-] All those things occurred based on OH strategic plan and updated pharmacy strategic plan and review of requirements of PCC from all PCC pharmacy-related issues. [] The authors reviewed the past eleven years of the workforce of a pharmacist at OH primary healthcare at twenty regions in the Kingdom of audi Arabia. The findings showed that, with incremental of number of PCC the number of a pharmacists working are still the same or decreased sometime over twenty regions in Kingdom of audi Arabia. The gender distribution was almost fifty percent male and female even with audi pharmacist. However, in city the female pharmacists were more than a male pharmacist, and most of them were from audi. In general, most of the new graduated female pharmacist wished to work at a hospital or PCC governmental sectors. They found very high job security than private sectors. Also, the male pharmacist wishes to work at pharmaceutical companies due to high salaries than governmental hospital or PCC, and excellent career development. The number of PCC is high in city and most of the pharmaceutical companies located in city. The nationality distribution was very high audi pharmacist due to full implementation of audization at Primary care centers. Another parameter of pharmacy workforces at PCC could not mention because it missed at OH Table : demographic information of hospital and primary care distributions current year.

CONCLUION The numbers of pharmacists were inferior at Primary health care centers. The audization program had a full implementation at primary care centers. The gender distribution of pharmacists are almost equal in ratio and there was a significant difference at some places like city. Targeting for increasing the number of a pharmacists with the equal percentage of male and female gender at inistry of Health primary care centers is highly recommended to improve pharmaceutical care services offered to the patients.
