Our objective was to understand patients\u2019 perspectives on the factors that can impact implementation of ASPs and integration of pharmacists in antibiotic prescribing in rural clinics.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We conducted a survey using both quantitative questions and an open-ended question. To participate, patients had to receive care from a clinic serving low-income or rural communities and provide verbal consent to be included in the study. We analyzed the quantitative component of the data using descriptive statistics. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to examine the relationship between respondents\u2019 knowledge of the prevalence of antibiotic resistance and their attitudes toward ASPs and pharmacist integration in antibiotic prescribing.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Of the 189 respondents who completed a survey, 51.3% were female and 51.3% were Caucasian. In our analysis, over 60% of patients reported knowing their prescribed antibiotics\u2019 names, while less than 30% possessed adequate knowledge of the indication and duration of the prescribed antibiotics. There was a positive correlation between knowledge about antibiotic resistance and being comfortable involving pharmacists in antibiotic prescribing (P &amp;lt; 0.01).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Many patients supported pharmacist involvement in antibiotic prescribing.
